Looks like the Dorch pricing did indeed increase $200 (S1 and S2) once the 1st batch sold out. I wondered if that price was actually going to increase..

I’m curious about your IATs. When do you think you‘ll be able to do several back to back pulls or get on track to see how quickly they spike? Again, nice work! |

Thanks!
During the pulls the IATs looked really good, will try to get the logs. Its pretty cold here atm also, and that might have helped. Halim was very pleased by what he saw Quote:

I also wonder what the numbers would look like with corrections.

Translated it'd be 529hp 562ft-lbs That turbo is rated for 550ps, so it's about at its limit. Last edited by Anthony1s; 02-28-2020 at 08:29 PM.. |

Yes I was wondering why it made so much torque.

I installed the FX-150 on my 2013 135is and am a really disappointed at the tapping/ticking sound at idle. In the engine bay it doesn't really make any more sound, but in the cabin with the windows closed its very loud and annoying. It can hear it coming through the floor boards It's like its resonating through the engine/transmission mounts into the cabin.
Anyone found a solution to this? I wish I waited for the Dorch unit, it seems like a much better kit at a lower price.

I think they all add noise because the sound deadning material is removed for these upgrades.

I don't think any material outside/around the pump will help. The ticking sound I'm hearing with the FX-150 is being transmitted through the engine itself. The sound under the hood seems to be largely unchanged. It may be possible to get used to it but any passenger or other human is going to think something is broken under the hood.

I've seen another person on Spool Street complain regarding the same ticking noise. Have you reached out to Spool to see if this is "expected" behavior.

So this appears to be only with the Spool product, not the XDI or Dorch versions?
I've not heard of this complaint before.

I also reached out to Dorch and they basically said that any aftermarket pump will have additional ticking sounds. Reducing rail pressure at idle can help. Mine is currently targeting 1,017psi at idle, which I think is stock. I've reached out to my tuner to see if this is an option. For a track car I think the sound is bearable, but for a street car trying to maintain daily driveability and comfort I am not too happy with the ticking. Usually high power and comfort don't go hand-in-hand, which is why I suspect most people are okay with the sound.

Interesting, I would opt for the dorch option but I really like the AN lines that the spool hpfp offers, since it makes it easier to upgrade fuel lines and add filters.

Spool also uses a quasi-flexible rubber high pressure line that looks cheesy and out of place when installed. It also rubs the alternator or intake manifold depending on which you prefer, prevents the vacuum line to the brake booster from fully seating, and interferes with removing the oil filter cover. Dorch uses a custom HP hardline. Overall not too impressed with the Spool kit given the price tag. If it was a $500 kit I would be more understanding. For a fuel pump that's $1500 OTD I expect perfection. The Dorch kit seems better engineered and at a lower price tag. I wish I waited!

My brand new XDI-35 started ticking on the second day of having it installed. It went away after driving and hasn't returned but ill be keeping an ear out for it. Tuning Tech said it was Tuning related but my tuner has neither acknowledged or denied this statement. Ill keep you posted. Currently running into fueling issues at high RPM on E45. Still getting the tune ironed out.
