I was wondering if any1 has tried this. My stock pump is dead and dont want to have to do that again! I need to know what pump to get to flow enough fuel. Maybe there is one off a stock vehicle I could use. I need som1 to give me some numbers. I am running a straight t3 15-20# of boost. Not really into racing, just want it fast for the street. Also will I need bigger injectors or are the 450s enough. I am wantin to get my car runnin soon so any replies will be awsome. and I dont need talked out of it, I already converted my tank. Thanks
 
you have 2 good options

stock walbro supra TT pump
walbro 255 low pressure
 
nah, I already got a 190. If it looks good, then go for it. Just make sure to check his seller rating.
 
just to clear things up - unless your planning on making more than 700hp you don't need an inline fuel pump
 
there are intank pumps that will flow more than you will ever need. They are cheap, and easy to install. Why go to inline?

A 190 will be fine if you dont want over 300whp, a 255 should support anything you throw at it, and you can get a supra pump if you want overkill.
 
well I am also looking for price too. Can u find a 190 for $56? I broke off 3 bolts and ruined many nuts on that stupid tank cover. Not all tanks are like brand new, if u didn't know that. I dont like tearin my car up every time that stupid $160 pump goes out!!!!!! Got IT
 
dude waste your money if you want i can install an in tank fuel pump in like 20 minutes and i'm slow!
 
Most inline pumps are made to piggyback off of an in-tank fuel pump and will not work by themselves.
 
"most" ohh really I think a 190lph, which is MORE than the stock pump can provide. now how does that work?? unless its not piggyback! and these dont need fuel to cool down, what happens when its almost empty? no fuel so it overheats and tada gotta change it! there
 
In the dsm tuner's parts catalog there is an inline MSD fuel pump for like 90$ and it is suposed to be good up to 500horses. sounds too good to be true but MSD is a respectable company.
 
I have been running this conversion for a few weeks now and its awsome. It is a little loud but hey, as long as I have more fuel, right. The only problem I have now is that the engine coughs at about 5500 rpms when sitting. Is that a rev limiter when the car is out of gear or what? If it is the I am saved, but I fear that the engine runs out of fuel around that rpm, which would suck :thumbdown! Any advice to what would make the engine cough would be helpful! Thanks
