That they do. But that once again is a different animal. They use a control module that varies duty cycle and controls fuel pressure. The zl1 camaro uses a similar system but only uses one pump. Some people have made 700 whp or more on it.

I am not saying that running two pumps is wrong. I just think a single pump system is more simple and costs less.

How exactly is it apples to oranges? It's simply 2 different methods of supplying a higher volume of fuel.

so question. we still don't know if it is a supply issue right? why not put a fuel pressure sending unit and put a digital fuel pressure gauge in and watch it. It would also show whether the new system is working as intended or not. From what I have heard , correct me if I am wrong, we still don't know if it is injectors.

whole bunch of side busting going on and hi jacking of a thread about a guys install of a Bosch 044 surge tank fuel system not one of the nay sayers have ever tried on a Cobalt LSJ.
lots of opinions about the OP's car and what he should do, from folks who have not even seen the darn car run. Or someone flogging a drop in pump.
Thanks for the install pics thread Japetr.
SMH.

Racetronix | Racetronix they are right by me, have a whole raft of new technology in injectors. Area47 is up on that as well. some if the injectors the owner at racetronix there has shown me are very nice. He runs a Grand National turbo v6 as a hot rod ride...had it since new... and i am out of the thread jack. lol

not at all saying they're trash. they have their place.

let me put it this way: you have almost the exact same core. would you rather have a stream shooting in the middle, or 2 cones aimed at the valves?
