Maybe it is the fuel pump? I'd swap the fpr with a known working one if possible.

We originally had a walbro 255 in there, saw the pressure drop so we swapped in a jays racing 342lph pump and saw no change. Have also swapped out FPRs with a known working one off of my friends WRX.

The pressure drop just means the pump can't keep up. Change to a new pump or a dual setup. Stop chasing your own tail just because you assume this pump from a friend is good. In general, try not to assume anything is working properly until you rule it out conclusively.
It sounds like you need to get your car to a good tuner who can go over the setup, make some necessary changes and spend some time to get it running properly. Your friends might know some things, but properly setting up and tuning a setup like this is not easy especially if you haven't done so before. Hell, just keeping a car idling consistently and not stalling with the ID2000's requires a couple tricks that most amateur tuners will not know about. -- Ed |

If the pump couldn't keep up wouldn't we have seen a change going from a 255lph to a 342lph that has now been rewired?
the pressure drops and holds identically before and after the fuel pump changes. That doesn't make sense to me if the pump is not keeping up, I think we would have seen some kind of pressure change with the larger pump. edit: the pump we put in was brand new. |

What wire gauge was used for power to the pump? Make sure ground is good also. Where are you pulling vacuum from for the fpr. Try to avoid t'ing off the vacuum line from the bov.

And from here I'd make sure the fuel filter isn't bunked up with trash, next would be getting rid of that pump!! You might not have enough volume but you should def be able to get more fuel pressure of you want it. Also if your using a fpr the spring inside it could be broke, giving you issues as well. |

We swapped the FPR from my car to his car with absolutely no change in pressure. Actually, his FPR is on my car now. It is on the stock ECU. Tuning with opensource. |

The ID2200's are nice in the fact that I could get a controlled enough spray that I could stay out of hitting minimum IDC. I was unable to do that with the Five-O 1,200cc side feed injectors. They'd drastically bounce from rich to lean at low IDC and most of the time the computer was commanding as low as it could for IDC with the latency doing all the work. Drop the latency to get the commanded IDC up, and they ran like poo. Quote:

Well I think at this point, if I were you I'd try one more big pump. Any one of the normal Subaru ones- like walbro 416 an I'd run at least ten gauge power to it.
Then I'd get the maf into the fender and in a good spot and that should solve your problems. Fwiw when I had my maf in the fender I originally used the ultimate racing maf housing. In short it sucked, the design and inside smoothness of it wasn't anything compared to the ks tech. Both looked the same at least close but they were worlds apart. Gl |

The intake is definitely in my future but they show back ordered. As far as the fuel pump...anybody out there make a double pumper kit like they have for the Evos?

I know u are having fueling issues, but that maf is bothering the crap out of me. The hotside piping is also hitting the intake...With how sensitive the maf is, that will surely cause problems.

Yes you can build or buy a double pumper setup but these days even on e85 you can make 500 whp on a single pump you just wont be able to go much beyond that.

I'll have to look into it. I already have two walbros and now a jays racing pump so that's why I was asking about a double pumper kit. I will still look into the bigger walbro pumps. I am just having a hard time believing its out of pump when there was zero change between the two pumps I've already had in there. |

Also have you check the o-ring on the MAF sensor? that o-ring tears up really easily. GL |

Haven't seen anyone mention the 02 sensor yet. I have an 06 Sti and I'm on my 5th 02 sensor.

Yes sir.
But I agree with what everyone else has already said. Maf is too close to turbo. Anytime u are transitioning throttle the maf in that position is gonna be off. Blow thru speed density or just straight speed density are solutions but if it's the front 02 u will still have issues unless u disable closed loop. Last edited by Phatron; 06-20-2012 at 06:13 PM. |

Checked the MAF o ring quite a few times and it appears to be ok. Quote:
Maybe someday I would like to switch over and go SD but right now I would like to just get it running on the MAF. Hopefully once we move the MAF down into the fender it will fix any MAF problems. |

Bad 02 = afr is off everywhere and your gas mileage sucks. If the car is drivable it usually starts presenting itself as a hesitation while cruising as the afr just starts bouncing up and down

hmm. might be worth changing then. I have drove the car a little bit and I do feel hesitation or a "miss" under a constant throttle cruising.

Well just got a text saying my friend rewired the pump again and now is seeing 59-60psi fuel pressure on 22psi of boost.
Sounds about right? |

It depends what your base pressure is set at. 1psi of fuel pressure per pound of boost.

base fuel pressure is stock which I see around 38psi with vacuum. So it all adds up in my mind.
