So Radium had this at PRI. Huge development for us roadcourse guys. Good news is it’ll apparently fit more than one LPFP and will be available late 1Q19/early 2Q19. Word is pricing will be around $600ish???? Patiently waiting for more details...
Correct
If this is a true surge tank design, means it needs to be fed by a lift pump. My assumption is they would be using the factory pump and bucket to feed this unit. If this is true you basically loose all closed loop feedback from the DME on your LPF system. How are you going to control those extra pumps? just power on with a relay and use the regulator the whole time? It would work, but is that really what you want to do?
I suppose if someone made a fuel pump controller and you rigged the lift pump on a relay it may work ;-)

Just running the pump constantly will just continually heat the fuel and prematurely wear the pumps out. Proper control of the pumps is a better solution.Don't need closed loop control if the pumps supply enough to maintain target pressure (72, 75, 80, whatever psi) and there's a return line for the excess fuel.
Hobbs trigger would be perfectly acceptable or even just an ignition trigger, pumps on when the car is on
This is true, it would be better. It’s also true that most non DI cars have been running this way for years. The Bosch 044 in my old car is still going strong.Just running the pump constantly will just continually heat the fuel and prematurely wear the pumps out.

Ask Mike @EOSpeed how long till they're availableI’ve been waiting for a real nice billet bucket replacement!!
