What benefit will this new relay kit give do you think? And will it be offered? I ask as I have your double pumper already but always looking for improvements myself, just keep having MAJOR setbacks that are so frustrating...

 

Yes it does work well,on my setup. 3'T/B-3' upper pipe,3' outlet on intercooler.If you look at the spool up differences between stock intake and Driven Innovations manifold,the DI mani spools up 20rpm's faster.
I made these changes on Tom's recomadations,I'm sure you will still see gains with the Buschur 2.5 upper pipe and ported stock T/B,on the Driven Innovation Mani.
I don't think Buschur (tuned) his car with the 3'upper pipe and 3' T/B and Driven Innovation manifold,he already has lost his mind with testing,and has stuck with the Hypertune due to the hassle of fuel requirements,like I said I went with the 3' setup because the guy that designed and made the Intake maniflold said that this would be the best way to go with his Intake manifold.
I'm sure we will see different results when a (tuned) Driven Innovations manifold is installed on another car.

 

 

any engine bay pics with the hypertune?

 

Yes, the relay kit will be offered, for sure. I have two of them on my desk but have no installed one yet. It is a direct "bolt" in, factory connectors etc. This will allow a full 13+ volts to be delivered to the primary fuel pump. The factory wiring has 2-3 relays and small wiring inline to the fuel pump. Our double pumper (as those of you know that own it) feed the secondary pump directly from the battery. This relay kit puts direct battery voltage the primary pump too. I'd guess it will be a pretty substantial improvement.

u2slo, I didn't retune the car because the tune didn't change from the 3" i/c pipe change. Had I seen any changes I would have moved the tune around. The owner from Hypertune told me the same thing Tom from DI told you. Change the i/c pipe and FMIC outlet to 3". I think you and I talked about it when you were here. The reason I didn't do it before is I didn't feel it would be a fair test for the rest of the intakes.

There just was no gain in power from the 3" I/C pipe and 3" FMIC outlet. It appears as though the power you gained was completely from the DI intake and TB. This is interesting as with the 3" throttle body on the DI intake it has now matched the Hypertune and Kansai for power, very nice!

 

This relay thing you are talking about for the injectors... is this what you were saying was your idea for getting past running out of fuel on e85 for my car with 1200's?

650whp is boring BHAHAHAHAHA. Good one!

THANK YOU! yes it has and your probably right 99% about the upper pipe,like I've said I did it only because Tom reccomended it and it was done.We will soon see what others gain on different setup's,hey if it wasn't for you doing all this we would all be still on stock I/M's.

 

Did you say "boring"??

 

I always enjoy reading David's posts on all the different tests he does. Keep up the great work!

 

I don't know what I was talking about with your car vwjeff, 1200
s definetely are not going to cut it on your build and E85, 1600's won't either.

 

I beleive my post was on page 21? Your answer is the first post

And I am talking about for the pump gas tOOn.

 

Were these dyno runs done in 4th gear?

 

not to take this too off subject, but this is so true! honestly each day all i do is go to "advance search" type in davidbuschur and set the date to "yesterday", and it will give me what david has posted for the day. it keeps me updated with all the stuff that is proven to work or is proven not to work with out all the vaseline.

keep up the great work, david!

 

Excellent, looking forward to results and will be adding this to my list of parts.
