93762, vortech sfmu Posted by chronicshit, Mar-09-06 11:25 AM
ok so i got my turbo kit off a 2gnt member midnitetill67 i think his nick is. anyways it came with the vortech sfmu but nothing was inside it except for the blue rubber circle and i read the online vortech installation manual but did not understand which part was which.. so i took some pictures of what i did and PLEASE correct me if i did anything wrong. oh yea sorry if the pictures r too blurry i took em with my cell.
 im going to be running 30lb injectors and a walbro fuel pump. which one of these disks and rings should i use? notice that both springs are the same color..
 What the hell is this? it came with the package but not sure if it has anything to do with the sfmu.. if u know what u used this for in ur turbo install please tell me.

i did not exactly understand the instructions on the manual i read online so here what i did. is everything in the right place?

The dark spring is an add-on you have to buy directly from vortech. You have the normal "short silver" and "long silver" springs.
The rubber o-rings are for the AN fittings you also need to buy to make this work. The white plastic thing is probably an installation tool for the o-rings.
Assembly is mostly right, except I'm not sure that disk/ring combo is correct for 30lb injectors. Search.
Also I hate to say it but if you have the instructions and don't understand them, it would be best to have a mechanic or knowledgable friend look over your work in person.

thx for the info only reason i didnt understand instructions is because it named parts that were already supposed to be inside the sfmu when bought newly but mines came used therefore had nothing inside and all other stuff came in a package.. thats all..

the rubber o-rings are for fuel injectors.
I thought the short spring there was the so called "dark spring" maybe im wrong on that. But the o rings are def for fuel injectors.

yeah the darker spring u gotta order from vortech i think, dont feel like ordering nothing no more lol so ill just go with the shorter spring i have. just need to know which ring + plate to use. i dont feel like measuring diamter either, i know its not the smallest one, or the biggest one (one which doesnt use ring), 2 left not sure which one to use.

with 30lb injectors you should use dark spring with biggest disk ,no ring and a bleed valve setup with a checkvalve
|
93870, RE: vortech sfmu Posted by chronicshit, Mar-16-06 11:34 AM
a bleed valve setup? with check valve? not sure what u mean.. im just getting started with this.. i was told to use the shorter spring out of 2, never got a darker one and dont feel like ordering one. and the 2.72 disk, not sure which one it is cause i didnt measure them yet. and also told to keep bleed valve a turn or two open. anything i missed?
