I hear they are good for 700hp

You can also run a fuel pump volt's amp that ups the volts and makes the pump run better... I hear those are also safe. then you can jack it up to 16 volts insted of 12 volts

I don't trust Walbro pumps... I've had about 50/50 success/failure rate with them. Paulus over at AEBS was telling me about a pump that was realy great.. and they've had good success with.. I'll have to ask him what it was.. I don't remember.

maybe he was refering to the denso pumps? tomei also makes a direct drop in pump for s13 and s14 but it cost bank. you can also use the z32 fuel pump, but it requires some custom fabracation.

After this weekend, I'll be able to tell you exactly how much, too.

Yeah.. Denso, that's it. They're about twice the cost of a Walbro. However, when it comes to your fuel system, would you rather be replacing a motor? Or spend 80.00 more on a reliable pump? ;)
