The pump and filter is all you need for installation. Unless you want to re-wire the pump as well, then you will have to purchase a re-wire kit or the necessary relay, fuse, wires and connectors.
 
The kit you got is no different than any kit that you have gotten from any website. You ordered a FUEL PUMP + KIT, you did not order the entire assembly. There are many parts from the stock pump that will be re-used, you must also re-use the entire assembly, but with your new pump. Check out any of the fuel pump installs, either here, or on VFAQ, it is very well covered. You will see that you have all that you need to install this new pump into your vehicle.- Since its a 255LPH then i would, at the very least install ( if not already) an adjustable FPR. Otherwise you will be running far above your stock setup's conditions.

-And search throughout DSMtuners for any other problems you may occur. Other than that, if you need to re-wire or purchase a re-wire kit, i suggest you get moving and experiance the installation first hand :D
 
ok so what i got out of this was that that the power will plug rite into the plug on the new pump no problem. all im doing is just replacing the pump itself, nothing else.

Right. :thumb:

These are universal pumps. They'll plug into your stock power connector directly. You don't need any other parts for the install other than the pump itself (the filter it came with won't hurt though).
 
If you want the rewire, like someone mentioned, you'll have to get it seperatly. Ebay has them dirt cheap ( roughly around 20 bux... give or take) You'll love it after you do the rewire. Its is always highly recommended to do the rewire. The fuel pump is made to flow ALOT more than a stocker and with the rewire... it will flow an run just that much better
