Right hand turn fuel starvation fix: Stillen or CJ Motorsports
Does the Stillen fuel pump that comes with their supercharger kit fix the problem that the CJ Motorsports fuel pump addresses? I am interested in a car that already has the SC kit installed.

Yes. The fuel starve problem is a result of the fuel tank design. As far as I know the tank design has not changed at all therefore fuel starve is still a problem.

Before I bought my '12, I had test driven an '09 and experienced fuel starvation when I took an on-ramp to the freeway. If I recall correctly, there were about 2 LEDs showing on the fuel gauge on that car.
I have not experienced this with my '12 and have taken the fuel level lower than 2 LEDs. I don't know if there has been a change to the fuel tank in response to that issue, but in the year+ I've had my car, it hasn't demonstrated the fuel starvation issue (yet). Dave |
