FP Black & DW1000
HB. Just curious how many FP Blacks you have tuned recently? And what kind of power did they put down?
I saw one thread on here where the guy made 430+ on 91. Were there any others?

575(bhp, to make close to 500whp) X .65 (gasoline BSFC on turbo 91oct, conservative number)=373 lbs/hr of fuel required.
373 % 4 = 93lbs/hr per injector
93 % .85 (IDC duty cycle safety margin) = 109 lbs/hr per injector or about 1150 cc per injector
109 x 4 injectors = 436 lbs/hr of fuel required
436 % 6 ( density of gasoline in gallons ) = 73 gal/hr
73 X 3.8 (to get lph) = 276lph
So our pumps are that good huh
Hrmmm.
Fp Green here on 93, DW800s, 26psi. Stock FPR, stock fuel pump.
My tune was leaning out at 7000rpm+ with IDC 90%
tried adding fuel, IDC up to 96% but my AFRs weren't coming down significantly, so i figured i was out of fuel pump?
Or am i out of injector and raising IDC/richening up the tune, isn't going to help me

But an actual IDC of 90-96% is very close to static flow, so you're not going to really see more fuel once you reach 100% IDC.
You might be running out of pump, hard to say.
By your math even a Walbro woudn't be able to make 500 WHP which it clearly is able to by a myriad of dyno charts posted.
wow, those must be some powerful stockers. do you care to share your math? becasue my math goes something like this.
575(bhp, to make close to 500whp) X .65 (gasoline BSFC on turbo 91oct, conservative number)=373 lbs/hr of fuel required.
373 % 4 = 93lbs/hr per injector
93 % .85 (IDC duty cycle safety margin) = 109 lbs/hr per injector or about 1150 cc per injector
109 x 4 injectors = 436 lbs/hr of fuel required
436 % 6 ( density of gasoline in gallons ) = 73 gal/hr
73 X 3.8 (to get lph) = 276lph
So our pumps are that good huh

Based upon my buddies (criptballer's) math, this IS possible. Only by running the injectors at a less stable IDC.. Which is NOT recommend obviously..
Lets see what happens if we ran 93% IDC given the math below.
575 X .65 =373 lbs/hr of fuel required.
373 % 4 = 93lbs/hr per injector
93 % .93 = 100 lbs/hr per injector
100 x 4 injectors = 400 lbs/hr of fuel required
400 % 6 ( density of gasoline in gallons ) = About 67 gal/hr
67 X 3.8 (to get lph) = 254lph
The walbro 255 is obviously maxing out on that power.. As well as the injectors. Is it worth running a minimal fuel setup this aggressive? I guess that all depends on how desperately determined you are to accomplish your bad *** goal of 500 whp.

You can probably turn the base pressure up high enough if you are using a Bosch 44 pump to make the DW 1000's effectively 1300cc. I would imagine a Bosch 44 on the stock fuel pressure regulator would probably do the same thing. I have a hard time getting my rail pressure below 55-60 psi at idle with my Bosch 44 with an adjustable fpr.

I'm using the Bosch in line after a surge tank that is fed by the stock pump. It is not fed at stock pump output pressure since the surge tank has an overflow back to the fuel tank. There is some pressure in the surge tank normally, but it is very low.
just like octane blue proved with my math, this can be accomplishes with higher IDCs. in the dyno plots showing 500whp on a single walbro and dw1000s i bet you most of them will have very high IDCs. just like i do at 92% IDC and those power levels.
I've heard from multiple local tuners that it reads to 120. Going to 100 isn't a problem.
