Im in the process of building a swirl pot setup for the boot of my 2.1 blob build. Im going to be replacing the oe under bonnet fuel filter with an inline filter.
Was wondering is a 30 micron filter sufficient for this?
Cheers

Hi there
I would go with 40 micron metal filter pre-pump, and 10 micron(Fuelab) pre injector.This is what we are run on our wagon at 450-490bhp and then with 2.35L at 555.5bhp
But I would say OE should be OK too as pre injectors fuel filter,but really depends on you
What fuel you will be running?
Are you thinking to run meth ?
Hope this helps
Thanks,Jura

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
When you say pre pump, where abouts on the system do you mean? In between swirl pot and 044?
I have bought a 30 micron bocsh inline filter but dont know how good this is or wether it will suffice.
Meth will be an option in the future but not yet
Cheers

Hi there
Pre pump I mean yes between the Swirl pot and 044.
Bosch 30 micron should be OK for yours needs,we are run Sytec Fuel Filter which don't have best reputation,but has been OK for us
Hope this helps
Thanks,Jura
