  • Welcome back to this episode where we look to finally address the fuel starvation issue on my MK5 Golf R32 Turbo. We fit a brand-new fuel pump into a second-hand fuel sender and this fixes our fuel starvation issue.

    Thanks for watching, let me know in the comments what you think and also what else you would like to see me do on my MK5 Golf R32 Turbo or indeed any other projects I could bring to the channel

    Great job. Why not add an external fuel pump?

      I wanted a proper OE fitment. I want it to be very daily drivable. Maybe when I go much more power I’ll have to look at that or a surge tank.

    Bro, great job there. Could you kindly send me the specs of that Sytec fuel pump you installed. I need to order one for my Stocm mk5 r32 4 motion..but am not sure the specs..I have the same fuel starvation issue with my after market fuel pump...and i hope what you have here can sort it out.

      Hey. No prob here is the eBay link www.ebay.co.uk/itm/274900821122?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Js6Gmd2zTOm&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=NifH31VqS-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

      Hi bro, thanks for your feedback. Can you kindly share with me the part number of the Sytec fuel pump you are using. I tried to get it online, but that part number seems vital. Thanks mate

    What sort of cost are we talking for the diy conversion? Parts, and mapping..roughly? Did you buy a package from one place or buy all the bits separately? Thanks, great build btw👍🏻

    • @OctaneFever
      @OctaneFever  Před rokem +1

      Thanks. All parts purchased separately. And in my first episode I put a spreadsheet with everything I have purchased and relevant links etc. it cost around 4.5k but recently I’ve had to spend another £1500 on clutches, flywheel and new manifold.

    So im from the states, i put the sytec in cus my fuel pump was dying and i broke the smaller fitting on the fuel pump for the jet pump/siphon, should i try to jb weld the fitting back on while i wait for a new pump to show up? I put the fuel pump on and started the car with the broken fitting and it was stumbling and when i revved it it didnt sound happy, afrs were 16 at idle.

    • @OctaneFever
      @OctaneFever  Před měsícem +1

      I wouldn’t run it at all. You will starve the car of fuel. And JB weld might just break when you put the hose on or when it’s submerged in fuel. I wouldn’t.

      @@OctaneFever what i ended up doing was plugging the broken fitting and jb welding it shut lol im not sure if that was a good idea but i only need it to last a week until the new one shows up. Car runs good now, no break ups and afrs are 14.7 at idle. Shouldnt be a problem as long as i keep the tank full right?

      It was mapped at 401bhp but I’m running more boost now so I’d estimate around 450hp

    Such a shame they don't make one that is compatible with e85 that also has a higher flow rate

    • @OctaneFever
      @OctaneFever  Před rokem +1

      Yeah it is. But also it’s very difficult and expensive to use ethanol. It’s only available in race gas which is something like $100 for 20liters.

      @@OctaneFever we have it pretty freely available in Australia, I have 3 petrol stations within 10 minutes of me where I can buy e85 for about $2.30 per litre Australian. Makes a massive difference to how far you can tune and allows a lot more timing and boost to be safer. I love your videos I just wish I could find an e85 compatible drop in fuel pump that will flow 550-600whp of e85 haha
