Also got adjustable launch control added.

Clutch in/accelerator to the floor enables it and then you adjust it up or down in 500rpm increments with the cruise control up and down buttons.

Makes 1.1bar @ 5000rpm so should get away alright...

Oh damn, that sounds like something I need in my life. Last I heard verso couldn't do it though, or only used an rpm limiter that didn't actually build boost.

Then again with a 5 speed, maybe it's better I don't have it...

This is a rev limiter type also but you can hear the turbo coming on and off spool with each blip, the car jiggles about like mad.

It's not a true LC, as soon as you let the clutch out it disables it, but it will still useful for launching on different surfaces.

If you are wondering why the pumps have two lots of different markings on them, is because the DW changed their markings on the pumps to just a normal small printing of ie DW300 to a larger full pump sized DW300 logo.

As for us selling fakes, happy to have DW confirm the amount of pumps we purchased off them and sold over the last few years (totalling over 1500 pumps.).. Last year alone, we sold over 750 DW fuel pumps from 200c to 65c, and incl the DW350. Last year we sent back 25 fuel pumps to DW for replacements under warranty. Unlike Walbro, where Fakes are hard to tell, i have yet to see a fake DW fuel Pump... the packaging, fitting kits, boxing and paperwork in side would be pretty hard to copy.

Hi Troy,

This is the info Racetorque passed on to me today, I was going to post it here later but you beat me to it.

Racetorque fitted a DW300c (they are the only other drop in pump for 08-14's) as a replacement for the faulty 65c which they supplied (purchased from PSR) earlier this year.

This is probably one of those 'nothing to see here move along' scenarios but I thought I should ask the question. I recently adjusted my rear Whiteline sway bar to the stiffest setting, to keep the bitches happy yo.

As you can see to get link to reach the innermost hole on the bar I have had to angle the bar upwards to get it to fit.

Is there any issue with the bar pointing up like this, in terms of its effectiveness or none at all?

The oem bar had a slight upwards angle to it but not like this?

Cheers.

it will be fine aslong as it doeant foul on anything during normal suspension travel. Sway bars are all about leveridge. changing the length of the 'lever' part of the bar obviously changes the amount of force transfered from one side to the other for a given rotation through the 'torsion spring' part of the bar. Aslong as the angles still allow the 'levers' to work. the swaybar will work as it should.

Cheers Bram, I was hoping I hadn't gone past some magical angle which would reduce the force the links could exert on the bar.

If the link bolts come loose again I may bite the bullet and get the adjustable type links that Whiteline do.

Meh it never fucking ends...
