Any idea if I run a CAT filter pre with a lift feeding 20 PSI through it if the filter will be ok and if its efficency will be adaquate?


Thanks

i don't know the max burst pressure but i've ran one at 14PSI before and it was fine. honestly i'd worry more about the EDU than the cat filter. 20PSI may be way overkill..

I was going to run 20 through the CAT and then run a reg before the EDU. The lift pump I am interested in has a output of 18-20PSI. I was going to run a bypass reg after the filter. Not so much worried about the filter shell kersploading as I am worried about the innards disintigrating and traveling downstreamhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Dead.gif
