Good luck with the heat, and stay hydrated man! Found a guy out in Carson City who's willing to help me with my engine swap, said he'll charge $1500 labor and do whatever he can get to while he's there for no extra. Also he's offering to let me come hang out, or help out for a day on my build, said he can return my car within about 5 days or so, has a machine shop across the street.
I installed one of these in my 07 STI. I'm glad to see that you just bought it with the two pumps preinstalled. I decided to cheap out and reuse my 340lph and just order the radium hanger with 1 pump. Big mistake. The two pumps are ever so slightly different, and my old 340lph did not fit correctly. This decision to cheap out started a chain reaction of events that led to blowing my head gasket. Also, glad to see that you didn't break any of the fuel hanger studs. Over here in the north east, they always break!
Breaking one of those studs would not be a good time 😖 luckily all the ones I've seen up here have stayed in tact. And I debated buying it without the pumps ore installed but figured for this it would just be a little more simple to just get it with thr pumps for now
I just wanted you to know that you are the most entertaining guy in the tutorial business. I love watching all of your videos and seeing you and the subarus grow! Keep up the amazing work!!
@@Smeedia I saw you still used the factory rubber houses from the fuel pump hanger to the hard-lines? Are you planning to replace these with PTFE lines like in the engine bay? i know Radium offers an upgraded Fuel Hanger Plumbing Kit.
I'll end up making my own lined and what not, for now the Oe Rubber lines work for yhr power we are at, but when we do the engine rebuild I'll go back over and swap to a -8 feed and -6 return
Humidity = thunderstorms sometimes. Assembly of the new fuel pump system looks great! I'd be sweating buckets while working in humidity hope you guys had some cold drinks👍🏼
@@Smeedia Yessir, IAG 900 long block, Blouch 2.5xtr, same fuel setup! Gonna be built by Dirty racing products down in Florida. I still have left over supporting mods from my old build as well that I won’t mention just because it’ll be really long lol. Keep up the great work, can’t for your builds to be finished!
Here down in LA we can have up to 132F on the concrete level of air the concrete is much hotter and 110 at head height. And we have so much humidity we have condensation on surfaces that run down and pool inside of internal components like frame rails and non water tight boxes.
I’m installing the radium as well. Had great advice that a hobb switch should be installed on one pump because the return is smaller than the feed and at low end/idle the smaller return will back up and increase the pressure in the rails because the fpr can’t evacuate enough pressure. Making bad drivability
@@Smeedia I’m going true 8 to 6 right now. But at idle am afraid that the injectors will only be using a very small amount so it would back up rather fast I would think. Just something to ponder on. I’ve definitely used some things you have shown and I’m just trying to return the favor. You do a good job man. Props
Slight bit of irony, remarking on the pnw undoubtedly unnatural mega heat wave while installing the massive petrol system to feed a 600hp street legal race car haha. Not that I'm any different
That was pretty good, other than the heat it looks pretty easy to do. Florida is pretty bad but since I've moved to SC the humidity is way worse then when I was stationed in TX, thinking about a window AC unit just for the garage/I know your pain. Keep up the awesome content and work, always🔥🔥🔥🔥
110? Geez. I was at Ft Lewis and it never got that hot. You guys don’t have air conditioning. Well a lot of houses don’t. Anyways. Love your videos. I’m a new 2021 WRX owner and learning a lot.
This looks like a pretty straight forward install. Hardest thing about it is probably the heat and that bracket but looking forward to the detailed install. Do you have an install video for the 17 STi?
Seems like most of the creators I follow on UA-cam live in the pnw I feel your pain with the heat I'm in Northeast Indiana we don't get over a hundred very often but we do hit high 80s low 90s quite frequently in the summer and get hella humidity since we're relatively close to the Great lakes it's wonderful /s 😐 hopefully it's a little cooler now
@@Smeedia yeah it was theast thing to get done before I started to break the motor in...now two weeks later and chasing a vacuum leak...pretty sure I added too much at once because the motivation has left me lol replaced everything but the transmission in a 4 week span with whatever extra time I had left after work
How many horses should I expect for stage 1 , catback and 3 port cobb controller on an sti? BTW i cant imagine how expensive its costs you to make the videos, you’re putting new amazing parts on everyweeks!
Thanks for all the videos, really learning alot from them. Just took the intercooler off my 06 Legacy gt and noticed a bit of oil on the turbo side. Cause for concern? Should I install a catch can?
I love my AEM 340lph multi fuel type pump. It's surprisingly quiet when you key on and prime it. I've heard the Walbro and it's a loud fucker compared to this.
Loving the content is this setup instead of fitting a surge tank in the engine bay or can the twin pump hanger pump the fuel needed to the engine for 600hp?🤔
Can’t remember what size injectors you have but for e85 to be safe should have been a -8an fuel filter and it should be 10 microns not 100. Didn’t come up with this myself. I am working with a small team of builders and tuners that are some of the best on the eastern coast. Just trying to help buddy.
ID1700s 🙏 I've got the 10 micron filter just have to swap out the core. Also have a -8 fuel filter but for the 17 STI I could spare for the time being. But staying with -6 for now. But I do agree that, that is the way to do it 🔥
Depends in what part of Florida you are. North gets some freezing conditions, Central gets cold with some frost here and there. South just cool. Of course it all depends what kind of Floridian you ask. 🤣. But winter time is the only time I do heavy work on my car, 2hr+ part installations... summer nope not happening...
Hey man just wanted to make you aware of something you might want to look into. You said that you are getting a aeromotive 100 micron fuel filter that you are installing post pump. Radium has a fuel filter selection chart on their page that they recommend a 100micron filter only be pre pump. A 10 micron stainless filter is recommended for post pump application according to them. I know it’s a different brand filter you’re getting, but I’m sure it’s essentially the same filter as radium. I’d just hate to see you have issues from this.
I saw that as well, not sure where they want the filter pre pump though, I'll snag a 10 micro filter that's the same size as the 100 I got and if we run into issues I can swap them out 🙏 appreciate the heads up on that!
@@Smeedia yeah I thought of the same thing when I saw the pre pump thing too lol. I just figured this would be one of those things you’d pull your hair out over trying to figure out the issue if something ever went wrong. Also no prob man keep putting out that 🔥 content!!!
Awesome vid! I always come back and check out info. I have a question for you, I'm almost done with the FA20 build, I am on the fueling system. For the my needs I ended up getting the dual pump Radium set up like the one on the vid. Did you find it sufficient, did you run into any issues? Did you need a surge tank?
It's so hot here in SE Washington! AC went out at work, so it's 93 in the building....time to leave early 😅 would it be a back I idea to flock a dash in this heat ????
U don’t I have to put the sender unit on after you put it in the tank. I don’t know why they tell you to do that because it can go in no problem while it is on there. I do it all the time.
Hello 👋 im going too install my built block soon just waiting on my turbo And well Do you need a new ecu if your getting a whole new engine in your subie ?
@@Smeedia thank you ! Your a life saver 🙌 its my first time installing a new engine in and most of the stuff is new too me so im learning along the way 😌.
Weird question are the hoses to the fuel pump clamped down? On a whalbro 450 we had to use a heat gun to get it in and it’s pretty much on there but can’t seem to see anyone using clamps on the fuel pump hose from the radium.
Can you use an aem fuel pump on an stock block and do you have to run e85 can you just run 91? Fuel pump is going out so I rather just upgraded when I do go e85
Hey Tanner since you’re using Radium Products I was wondering which you’d recommend. IAG AOS or Radium Dual Catch Can? I have a ‘20 WRX with basic bolt ons
Other than a head gasket, and thermostat, what else can be causing an overheating issue. I doubt it’s an air bubble. When I send it, it goes 200 + 217, and then it drops. When it’s idling, it’s 196-198 and when I open the hood, it goes down drastically so maybe I should change hoods ?
Just ordered a Radium FPR... my base pressure is at 60psi after the AEM 340LPH pump, I'm hoping it's causing my very rich condition (-25% STFT) I've been fighting for months...
@@Smeedia 2008 WRX hatch. Car side top black fuel hard line (pressure) to top line on engine, lower fuel line comes out through the stock regulator then back into the grey line to return to tank? Is what I'm working with. Pulled the vacuum line on stock regulator, went up to 62psi O.o
I used one for a few weeks, not a huge fan of it, ended up swapping to thr IAG. Personally did not like the coolant hose routing or the PCV hose routing
Do you think i will need a external fuel pump with 500 crank hp on my 2018 wrx sti? I just updatet the injectors, fuelpressure regulator and the fuelpump. (1050cc injectors and a 340 liter per hour fuelpump)
Your trunk opens that easily?? My seals suck the living hell out of that trunk lid. The back seats......I've wanted to remove them and find some kind of overlay in CF or something so the bare frame doesn't show.
@@Smeedia from what I've seen, it's probably cheaper and better to try and fabricate something myself, but out of what I have no clue. And also, RiP to Matt's toes
I down here in Florida. We stay in the AC as much as possible and watch awesome videos like yours
Enjoy that AC, wish that we had it up here 😅❤

I feel ya man, she's a hot one up here on the east coast of Canada today, been debating if I want to go out in the heat and work on the car haha
Like 95* and below I'm fine to work out there but anything over that, I don't wanna melt 😅😅😅
@@Smeedia it's about the same here roughly before the humidity. Straight heat don't bother me, once there's humidity I quit haha 😂
the radium hangers are so nice. i think im one of the few w/ it for 2015+ wrx . def one of my favorite parts.
They make it for the WRX?! 🔥

Gotta have that fuel flow 😈😈😈
Never thought there’s that many wire sensors on a fuel pump
Normally there's around 6 or so on there 🙏😁

Hey bro I'm trying to connect my tgv deletes to my ID 1300s and my radium fuel rails for my 2020 sti! What should I use to lubricate the o rings?
I've used super lube, WD40, silicone spare and oil. All work but spray it on your finger then lightly lubricate the O ring
are you not concerned with having exposed wires in your fuel tank tho?
Gasoline has a low conductivity so not overly, most electrical connections can withstand fuel
Weird question are the hoses to the fuel pump clamped down? On a whalbro 450 we had to use a heat gun to get it in and it’s pretty much on there but can’t seem to see anyone using clamps on the fuel pump hose from the radium.
Unless u r using the oem fuel line. Then it would be -6
🙏🙏🙏
Can you use an aem fuel pump on an stock block and do you have to run e85 can you just run 91? Fuel pump is going out so I rather just upgraded when I do go e85
Yes you can use it and they work for either E85 or normal pump gas 🙏😁
Thank you my dude👍👍👍👍👍
How often should you think about changing your fuel pump , been thinking about doing mine
They're not really a wear item, mainly swap them out for more power. But I've seen OEM pumps last 200K+ miles
Is this as good as a surge tank with fuel starvation cornering?
If your going full track car I'd do a surge tank, for a street car it's a very good option
How much power do you think the stock block EJ can handle reliably?
Type RA 500ish
standard EJ 400
Hey Tanner since you’re using Radium Products I was wondering which you’d recommend. IAG AOS or Radium Dual Catch Can? I have a ‘20 WRX with basic bolt ons

Right now stock, but I've got an AMS on the bench waiting to go on 🙏
Is it true that EJs hate Blow off valve
For the most part yes, with a tune they tolerate them better
Other than a head gasket, and thermostat, what else can be causing an overheating issue. I doubt it’s an air bubble. When I send it, it goes 200 + 217, and then it drops. When it’s idling, it’s 196-198 and when I open the hood, it goes down drastically so maybe I should change hoods ?
Not head gaskets
Not thermostat
Only other things I could see are a bad radiator
Blocked coolant passage
Bro I need to install my new AOS but it’s death outside
Lol ohhhhhhh I know, did the fuel pump yesterday and that shit was spicey out 😅 10/10 suggest waiting until it cools down a bit
@@Smeedia my goal is Tuesday, hopefully up at the mod garage because my driveway is a gravel mountain of doom
Get ittttt, I'll be up there tomorrow once everything cools down 😅
Im new getting into wrx/sti so should I get a 2015 sti limited or spend the extra money and get a new version
Personally I would get a used model. Preferably a 2019 if your looking to push one with the stock engine
The oil in my catchbcan smells like fuel ok? Or problem and if so how can I fix it?
Normal to have a fuel smell in there 🙏
Just ordered a Radium FPR... my base pressure is at 60psi after the AEM 340LPH pump, I'm hoping it's causing my very rich condition (-25% STFT) I've been fighting for months...
Not a bad FPR, but the pump shouldn't mKe fuel pressure spike like that
Whats the car?
@@Smeedia 2008 WRX hatch. Car side top black fuel hard line (pressure) to top line on engine, lower fuel line comes out through the stock regulator then back into the grey line to return to tank? Is what I'm working with. Pulled the vacuum line on stock regulator, went up to 62psi O.o
Hey Tanner what are your thoughts on the Radium aos?
I used one for a few weeks, not a huge fan of it, ended up swapping to thr IAG. Personally did not like the coolant hose routing or the PCV hose routing
Cool man thanks
How do you install hobb switch for the second fuel pump?
Can you switch out those fittings to AN fittings on the top of the hangar?
Yes you can 🤙
Very random but do have a S21 ultra with a Spigen case?
S20 Ultra with an otter box 😅 why? Lol
@@Smeedia Lol I have a S21 ultra with a Spigen case, as you was looking at your phone, I'm watching with mine and it looked 100% the same!
Lol almost twinning 😅😅😅
@@Smeedia 👍👍 😆🤣😂 Your smashing this content btw mate
Eyyyy, appreciate it my friend!
Hey man do got the hardwire install for the dual pump?
ua-cam.com/video/_JXcWmgO2dw/v-deo.html 🙏🙏
Thanks man your the best! 🔥 hey im missing your VA 🔥
I too am missing my VA 🥺🥺🥺
Do you think i will need a external fuel pump with 500 crank hp on my 2018 wrx sti? I just updatet the injectors, fuelpressure regulator and the fuelpump. (1050cc injectors and a 340 liter per hour fuelpump)
Guessing your staying on pump gas? No need for an external pump 🙏
@@Smeedia Yes Pump Gas. Thank you!
Did you drop fuel pressure prior to this install? Or just went ham on it? Lol
Just went ham 😅
Its been hot as ☠️in n.c
🙅♂️🙅♂️🙅♂️ things should be cooling down up here hopefully 😅😅
What happens if you did run both fuel pumps before you needed all that fuel
May tun into idle issues with the FPR being over powered but aside from testing really
Any1 else get worn out fast when working on your car in high temperature weather?
100%, took frequent breaks to chill out for a bit
*dual fuel .... unless you want to duel about it.
Lol oh I'm fighting these fuel pumps. It's a duel to the death 😅 lmao
Your trunk opens that easily?? My seals suck the living hell out of that trunk lid. The back seats......I've wanted to remove them and find some kind of overlay in CF or something so the bare frame doesn't show.
I've seen some diversionary panels that are CF and Aluminium but they're a little $$$ 😅
@@Smeedia from what I've seen, it's probably cheaper and better to try and fabricate something myself, but out of what I have no clue. And also, RiP to Matt's toes
