Hi what is the best fuel system to run on a supercharged conversion?

I will be running a 1330 with a blow threw set up. Was just wondering if I'm best to get a spi/mpi tank or just use my standard carb tank and run a facet or similar external pump.

Thanks

Clive

If blow through you'll need al the metro turbo gubbins:

Carb
plenum
pump
fuel pressure regulator
feed and return piping

If you use the Spi or Mpi tak it make pluming it up easier. The Spi pump will only alow around 10psi, but that's the realistic limit of the M45 anyway.

Thanks. I already have the carb and plenum. I wasn't sure which was my best option for the tank etc. hopefully the car will be back at the weekend so I can start building it all :-)

As wil says....

I will ad though... that you can use the SPI tank and replace the pump with an in tank one form a modern injection car ( fiesta honda etc) and run more boost.
