thanks a ton.. fuel cut is annoying!!!!

Fuel cut does suck and the pump may or may not fix it. Either way it is a good mod to have.

you can go to cp-e and get one as well. PG has a kit you can get and put together for way cheaper than buying a whole new pump, you can also get the internals kit other places than PG I think a company called KMD Tuning or something makes the some internals for ford or cosworth engines whatever they are called.

You "can" buy the internals and build the pump yourself but BEWARE ! The tolerances are so tight and precise that a spec of dust/debris inside the pump can cause it to lock up and blow your motor. My yhought is let PG handle the detail work. That way your ass is covered!

seems like a lot of guys are being the kit from Ken and doing it themselves, and no one has reported any issues that I am aware of...

I know you wanna rep PG and all but it's not rocket science and I dont think anyone should waste money on a whole pump when they can get the internals kit. You make it sound so scary it's not at all if you have the tools and a clean workspace and a little mechanical ability you can bust it out easily.

the tolerances are very tight but a spec of dust is on everything in the world and it wont make your motor blow.

People on the "other" forum have been reporting noisy pumps with the internals only. The pumps that are fully built are noiseless...

There seems to be an issue with the kits being installed...might just be assembly.

I'd get the fully built pump...not worth the risk or annoyance of a noisy pump.

I installed my internals ~2 weeks ago and it is as silent as stock.

 

[dion51]

was it a worthy mod? how long was the install?

 

[Speed3Rookie]

Definitely worth it. Took me ~45 minutes. See my post showing a before and after dh log on the Mazda3 forum and MSF (Speed'n3)

It's supposed to suck. How else are you going to the fuel out of the tank.

 

[tru-boost]

Its a needed mod if you plan on making power. As for the install, i have done so many of them that i can do the whole swap in under 15 min.

 

[dion51]

anyone in so cal area know how?

 

[lvmazdaspeed3]

just asking for an opinion but whos pump is considered better cpe or pg?

 

[Speed3Rookie]

U got the dough...go
cp-e and get the new pump. On a budget...get the internals from pg.

 

[mrjoshyman]

damn...this ain't a cheap mod if you buy the full pump.

650 from PG? On the PG site it says that its the same price for a brand new pump as for a brand new pump and you return your stock one? It doesn't specify how much the core refund is..
