I've been thinking about going for a new fuel pump / injectors. Anyone else have this done / have any thoughts??

Fuel pump is a biotch to do....

Injectors are just time consuming.

Are you getting a bigger turbo? why the inj/pump swap?

bigger turbo eventually but not yet... I think I can get the stocker up to 20psi and up the fuel a bit. With a good tune it should be 320whp or so...

...then eventually when I can pony up the dough, a bigger turbs

:lol:

Easy if you're replacing the stock pump with a stock pump :lol:

An aftermarket pump is bigger, and requires modification to the pump housing IIRC

What do you want them for? What are you plans for a turbo? Why the need for bigger injectors now?


I would just get a walbro 255 lph FP for your car, IMHO. There is no need for bigger injectors. You could get your bored and flow tested and it wouldnt cost you much money.But your current injectors arent necessarily running near full cycle with the tune you have I am sure. The new FP would be much better at this point.
