acceleration surge on right turns

[pmanaresi]

I have been getting a hard surge when making right hand turns under boost in my 2g with 6bolt stroker swap. It feels like fuel slosh and i thought maybe that is what it is since the fuel pump is located on the right side of the fuel tank. any other ideas?

YOu are exactly right on the reason why. Now it's up to you to decide how to fix it. Your choices are
A.) weld baffles in the tank
B.) Fill the tank with foam from fuelsafe.com
c.) Weld a bottom feed sump into the tank along with baffles for it..... best done for using an external aeromotive style fuel pump.

Personally, i would add baffles, there use to be a great write up on building baffles with "trap doors" to let fuel in like a one way valve and keep it there through turns. I"ll most likely just addd a few small baffles inside the tank and then fill it with foam to keep the fuel from sloshing so much. When i'm below 1/2 tank my car becomes a NASCAR (as in i can only turn left if i want to be on the gas)

wow great i was really skeptical that this was the cause. i have never heard of this being an issue. its not great that this is an issue but thanks for clearing this up. do you have a link fr the baffle write up maybe?

The write up use to be on FuelSafe's website. I know it's still there i just can't find where they hid the link to the instructions on building them.
