The DW440 delivers brushless pump technology in a design that is optimized for use in OE pump modules.

Compared to traditional brushed DC motor fuel pumps, brushless (BLDC) fuel pumps offer increased efficiency/flow, higher durability, and expanded fuel compatibility. Delivering these brushless advantages in a package optimized for in-tank use is a significant challenge. Up until now, the brushless pumps available in the high-performance aftermarket have been limited to either in-line pumps or submersible pumps too large for fitment into most OE modules. The new DW440 is the first turbine-impeller brushless pump system designed for fitment into OE pump modules. The DW440 brings brushless pump technology into the tank by providing several unique features…

Compact Size – Modern fuel pump modules have a lot going on in a small amount of space.  Fitting a big aftermarket pump into these modules is not an option. The DW440 measures 4-inches from inlet to outlet. This is 2” shorter than the competition, opening up lots of fitment options that did not previously exist for customers wanting to integrate brushless pumps into their fuel system.

Bulkhead Wiring – Brushless pumps require a 4-wire connector for digital control. The DW440 pump kits include a bulkhead harness that allows pass-thru of the 4-wire system via a small 10mm hole which is easily added to an OE module top-hat.

Venturi Outlet – Most modern pump modules utilize a “venturi jet” system to prevent fuel starvation at low tank levels and high G cornering/acceleration. The DW440 has an integrated 6mm outlet to drive these systems.

The brushless DW440 delivers a lot of flow in a small package. With standard 13.8v battery voltage, the pump flows 440LPH at 40 PSI to support 1000hp on gas and 750hp on e85. If even more flow is needed, the 40amp controller and brushless design make this pump an ideal candidate for use at voltages beyond typical 13.8 battery voltage. The pump and controller have been endurance tested at voltages up to 24v. At a recommended max intermittent voltage of 20v, the DW440 flows 620LPH at 40psi. 

All brushless pumps require digital controllers to drive the brushless armature. The controller included with the DW440 pump kits were designed exclusively for DW and includes features and options to maximize ease of integration into your fuel system. The DW brushless C1 pump controller is rated at 40amps and includes variable timing advance, digital thermal protection, and high capacity integrated heat sinks.  The controller is housed in a compact 2.5x3.5 inch billet aluminum case making it easy to tuck away out of sight near the pump module. 3 different controller options are available to maximize compatibility with your fuel system… single speed, dual speed, or PWM compatible.

C101 is a single speed controller which allows you to operate your DW440 in a simple 100% duty cycle “constant on” just as you would a standard brushed pump.

C102 is a dual-speed controller which allows you to operate the DW440 at low duty cycle during normal driving conditions and full duty cycle during high load conditions.

C103 is a PWM modulated controller which allows your DW440 to be fully controlled by your existing OE or aftermarket fuel pump control modules PWM signal.

Product Function & Benefits

Fuel Systems can vary drastically from one vehicle to the next. The specific recommendations and benefits will depend on your goals and the platform.

Basic Components of a Fuel System:

Fuel Pump(s): Deliver fuel from the fuel tank to the injectors.

Fuel Injectors: Sprays fuel into the intake ports (Port Injection) or combustion chambers (DI).

Fuel Pressure Regulator: Ensures that fuel pressure is maintained within the desired range.

Electronic Control Unit (ECU): Controls the timing and amount of fuel injected. (This is where tuning comes in!)

Tune-Related Impact & Tuner Recommendation

Recommended vs Required:
• In general, we recommend upgrading fuel system components for max effort builds, or for running ethanol content greater than the stock fuel system can support.
• Upgrading the fuel system is not required for tuning.
• Tune requirements are dependent on which part(s) you're upgrading and the fuel you're using.
• Upgraded injectors always require a tune.
• Upgraded fuel pumps may not require a tune, but having one is strongly recommended if it is not required.
• Upgrading the fuel system on a tuned vehicle requires a tune update.
• You may also need an Additional Tune to cover additional fuel types.

Explorer-Specific Information

Fuel System Setup: The 3.0L EcoBoost uses a two-pump fuel system in which an in-tank low-pressure fuel pump (LPFP) delivers fuel to a high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP). This setup is commonly referred to as a returnless fuel system. The HPFP, which is mechanically driven and mounted on the engine, then increases the fuel pressure to the levels required for direct fuel injection (also called direct injection or DI).



When to Upgrade / Stock Fuel System Capability:

The stock fuel system is capable of supporting up to 50% ethanol content (e50) with no other modifications. Upgrading turbos or running a higher ethanol content may require fuel system upgrades.

We do not recommend upgrading the fuel system for 3.0L vehicles running pump gas (87-93 octane). Otherwise, your specific goals and build plan will determine our recommendations.



Why not upgrade the fuel system for pump gas?

A 40%+ HPFP with 24% over injectors will max out the stock turbos, and would produce max power with an ethanol content of 40-50%. If the turbos have been upgraded, the same HPFP and injectors will produce max power with an ethanol content of 50-60%.



General recommendations for this platform are as follows:

HPFP:





Choose one that provides a flow rate at least 40% greater than stock.



For customers planning max effort builds, we recommend the greatest flowing HPFP available.

Injectors:





For versatility and fuel system efficiency, we recommend injectors that support a flow rate of at least 20% over stock.



For customers planning max effort builds, we recommend the largest injectors available (Nostrum Stage 3 = 96% over).



Additional Considerations:

As always, with great power comes great responsibility. Upgrading your fuel system has the potential to increase power output beyond what other components can support (e.g., transmission). Please be diligent in ensuring that you are adding sufficient support for each upgrade. We are here to help if you have any questions or would like specific recommendations.

F150-Specific Information

Fuel System Setup: The capability and point of requiring fuel system upgrades varies by engine. Your specific goals and build plan will determine our recommendations. Aside from the general information below, fuel system recommendations are made on a case-by-case basis.



When to Upgrade / Stock Fuel System Capability:



2.7L F150 (2018+ - Factory Port Injection)
Can run up to full e85 with a tune only. No fuel system upgrades are needed in most cases.



3.5L F150 (High Output - Raptor, Limited) 
Can run up to e50 with no additional modifications. For customers looking to run full e85, a port injector upgrade is required.





We recommend injectors with a capacity of 1065.0 CC.



This upgrade is sufficient to support upgraded turbos running full e85.



3.5L F150 (Standard Output)
Can run up to e50 with no additional modifications. For customers looking to run full e85, a fuel pump and port injector upgrade is required.





We recommend upgrading to the OEM High-Output Pump (OEM Raptor Fuel Pump)



We recommend selecting injectors with a capacity of 1065.0 CC.



Additional Considerations: As always, with great power comes great responsibility. Upgrading your fuel system has the potential to increase power output beyond what other components can support (e.g., transmission). Please be diligent in ensuring that you are adding sufficient support for each upgrade. We are here to help if you have any questions or would like specific recommendations.
