wizard Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Some good progress on the car by Abbey Motorsport: Dyno'd at 275bhp at the wheels, so now running 275/275, really happy with the amount of torq abbey have squeezed out of it The suspension springs have been altered for slightly softer rating as we are moving back to semi slicks from slicks for the championship regulations We have weighed the car and please to say its at 1355 kg's, this should allow me to consume some more pie pre-race Extra fuel pump is in and working so no more fuel starvation/lift off oversteer Excellent news that you have the weight of the car down by over 200kg from OEM. Can you elaborate a little what you guys did for the fuel pump issue and why a solution was needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLizard Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 Hi Wizard, the issue was that on long right hand turns you get fuel starvation as the pump in the saddle fuel tank is on the right hand side, so turn right all the fuel goes to the left and if you have no fuel in the pump then you have no power which unsettles the car greatly. Abbey devised a system where the second fuel pump pumps fuel to the other pump so regardless of the corner the car always gets fuel works really well but we are using 1litre a minute in fuel !
