while you may not be ready to leave to another manufacturer, the discussion here is the elimination of fuel starvation of high fuel consumption engines.....
we have used the BG 400 on the quick 16 car for several years without issue.
your opinion of what looks cobbled up is just that, opinion. in reality, they are extremely reliable.
the new BG King sumo pump will support a 2000 hp engine, as I said before, and that is far and above what any current modified 928 engine is producing. they are very quiet and operate at 12volts without any additional controls.
for those who are worried about added heat in the fuel, BG makes a heatsink that lowers fuel temps by nearly 100 degrees that can be installed in series, with no reduction in fuel flow.
it would appear to me that those who are in the market for fuel delivery system upgrades would look "outside" the Porsche box, for a solution to fuel supply starvation, fewer pieces to worry with, and noise relief.
if you could buy a product that solves all of these issues, what's not to like about it? your car is modified anyway, so why not change out the antiquated Porsche system for a more modern alternative?
