More exactly, higher injection pressure leads to better atomization ( assuming the same injectors are used.). When a fuel volume is delivered over a shorter period of time, peak pressures rise .

you should try Goran in Sweden at Dieselmeken who does complete injection pump rebuilds ... proven good product = super M pump. I recently purchased one for $1,250.

I need this!

Smoke from super pumps I see in videos on Youtube would get me put in jail for causing accidents of cars following me in all of the black smoke. Maybe the super pumps is just for on track purposes spinning in circles and not intended to be driven in civilization. There is a reason Mercedes have the pumps turned down so low. The reason is that the cars would be too fast to be controlled if it had more than 150 horse power. Then a beer or two drunk in the last 5 hours would slow down reaction times that would make the Mercedes an out of control missile. Need extra good tires and excellent wheel alignments. Then extra worry about police and high insurance rates increase. That is what I am facing.

Maybe in the US.
In Europe many fast cars are produced.

The challenge is to make power with a minimum of fuel. This automatically keeps smoke down.
And daily driving with a superpump is another challenge when it comes to perfectly running engine....

Cheers,

Tom

I was speaking of diesel powered cars. Diesel fast is different than gas fast to me.

Yes, this is the problem with the super pumps I see on Youtube. That much black smoke would get me put in jail and make me not like my car not even on a track.

I don't understand this statement. Diesel power is good. Large black smoke is bad.

Here most big diesel cars are way stronger and faster than gassers.
I.e. BMW ...750, 535, I think the M50 is one of the fastest passenger cars today and it is diesel.

What you see on youtube is promotion of some people who either think it's cool or just don't know better how to avoid smoke.

Finally it is the responsibility of the diesel shop/and owner of the car to adjust delivery in such a way that black smoke is even less than stock.

My 603a daily driver with just superpump makes fun, uses less fuel compared to stock and smokes less than stock.
This is what a small group of us is working on.
All starts with detailed understanding, correct calculation and high quality parts manufactured and ends with the responsibility of the driver.

Don't put all "superpumps" in one box.

X2.....

If you consider how those smoking suprepumps were modified in order to put out the quantity of fuel they do while using 7mm or 8mm elements, compared to Tomnik's approach, you would clearly see there is no comparison..

Additionally, the nozzles that are available were not designed to produce an ideal spray pattern at those delivery quantities and rate, let alone the aforementioned at high RPM operation.. The pintels are being pushed right out of the orifice, which allows large amounts of fuel to be delivered quickly, but in the same fashion as an open garden hose would.

I need to check this forum more frequently! I'm definitely interested in some of your elements if/when they're put up for sale tomnik

Wait... you can't control a 150 HP diesel? I'm not sure I understand what you are saying... that's only 25 HP more than the OM617.952 stock.

Also, it wouldn't have more top speed, it would just get there faster. Unless the pump is improperly setup it would still be governed to "x" rpm's

Right.

Haha, just realized that my Buick is 3,000 lbs with 160 HP. Insane!

As an experiment I have done this OM617A 8 mm MW pump. Pump is in a G-wagen now, and I got this report yesterday
35" Wheel, stock pump 0-90km/h 62sek ( 0-55mph / 62sec)
After swapping to 8,0mm MW 0-90km/h 18 sec
Nice smoot Power, Good at low idle, 1,8 bar max boost with a slight black smoke after
Automatic transmission started to slip a bit att full load.
This is OM617A Standard, no other Changes than pump.

On negative thing is that the Engine stall and stop after hard load, Dont know if its a fuel pressure issue or if its a damper capsule adjustment that needs to be done. As I Sayed, an experiment.

Element is thick type, not thin type MW, thats why I have this adaptor plate on 3 mm.

Nice Pump!!
