If you can build a compound set-up then surely you can tune your pump for more fuel!
Quote from: Thezorn on July 08, 2011, 10:04:44 pmSo Im going to either get giles to build my pump or Im going to try and rotate the throttle arm? thing. My fuel screw is already in as far as it will go without the idle being to rediculously high (1050-1100)My throttle arm is rotated back I think 3 notches already and will need multiple more once I get around to tuning my pump.Before you pull the last arm off, make a good mark with a knife or something where your arm is set. I would do 1 or 2 notches at a time and start the car/get it idling properly before getting all the springs back on. Remember as well that rotating the arm back means you can back out the full throttle stop screw on the front of the pump too!Your pump is an AAZ, right? It's a real PITA to get the springs on and off. Set aside hours to get it done. You'll use them all. Take lots of pictures before you pull it apart; it'll save you lots of time staring and scratching your head at how the arms go back on. I don't even have all the springs on my pump anymore.

Yes it is an AAZ pump, Ill maybe try this tomorrow and see how it goes. On a side note I do have the LDA line disconnected so that might have a bit of a part in the lack of fuel?
enough boost is when you have 3 dimple marks in the hood from the valve cover nuts..

It doesn't seem to add a significant amount of fuel
AAZ LDAs really are a JOKE then..
There's a reason the AAZ LDA pin is called a "joke" pin... the "joke" is that there's not really any taper on it whatsoever!! It's practically pointless really. The 1.6 LDA pin / spring is a fantastic upgrade for an AAZ pump.Just do the gov mod to start, it's really not hard nor is it going to do anything to hurt your engine. Giles is definitely the best bet if you can go that route, but for less than an hour's work you can find out a whole lot about what your engine really can do. Really though unless you go for someone like Giles you'll never have a pump that can actually use your compound setup.
