Hi All,
I want to install a performance fuel pump and manual fuel pressure regulator, any suggestions on a good brand for the pump? I've already bought the regulator from Snow.
Thanks,
Performance Fuel Pump

Robert put a DeatschWerks DW200 in his R that runs a tune, takes a bit of fiddling to get it to fit in the plastic housing.

Thanks foggydog, I will look into it Doesnputting in a performance pump mean more power? Or do you need a tune to get more pressure/performance out of it?

A fuel pump with higher volume potential provides enough fuel for bigger injectors and the other things that go into making more power. It's more of a concern for folks who regularly thrash their cars, but the presumption is that high-performance pumps are a built a bit sturdier. Keep in mind the stock OEM pumps last pretty well, too.gizmaster_1 wrote: ↑13 Jun 2023, 09:20 Thanks foggydog, I will look into it Doesnputting in a performance pump mean more power?
