Is there a a different Walboro Intake Pump that does not require "cutting"?
Same here! I can easily go over 100 PSI with this Pierburg! It really is a trip and 1/2!Little Beavis said:Added an inline (Pierburg). Stock pump couldn't support 5 psi or so. . .started to whine after hard driving.
Pierburg is great, makes a little humm, but nothing major. Allowed me to support 100 psi under boost without fade. Was able to peak about 120 to 130 psi, but couldn't hold it. . .so out went the FMU. . .but the inline fuel pump remains!
Well, my car has always idle a little rich, but I can run 14.7 when cruising, so no problem there. I also found that with the inline, I could go to a 8:1 on the Vortech FMU, as I was obviously getting more fuel. That allowed me to turn up the boost, which was great!paulmp3 said:???'s tp those with inline or new pumps. Especially if you have a wideband!
How does your car idle and run in normal driving? will the car still maintain a 14.7 AFR while in closed loop?
Which one is better inline or intank??
Also links and prices!
What FPRs do you guys use?LinuxRacr said:Same here! I can easily go over 100 PSI with this Pierburg! It really is a trip and 1/2!

Yeah and no. If it is the fuel pump, yes. If it is not the fuel pump, no.Matthew said:shouldnt i just be able to hook up the fuel pump and if its rich im good for now? then get the meter later?
StuttersC, how was the install? was it straight forward? no cutting?StuttersC said:Just to answer the question, I replaced my intank pump with a Walbro 342.
Whats the difference between the Walbro 342 and the Walbro 255. Which one would you use for certain applications.StuttersC said:Just to answer the question, I replaced my intank pump with a Walbro 342.
I didn't have to pull any charge piping out to install my Pierburg In-line pump. You just have to feed into the other side of the RRFPR. It works fine.StuttersC said:Just to answer the question, I replaced my intank pump with a Walbro 342.
I do not know if there is a better replacement, however, I did not cut my pump holder deal up.
As for the reason why, the stocker couldn't handle the flow I needed. I watched the pressure drop as the RPMs went higher on 5 psi of boost. With the replacement, I have no issues.
I chose the Walbro for ease of installation given that I didn't feel like pulling half of my charge piping out and hacking up more fuel line to get everything set up again.
Either option will work. If I did it all over again, I would probably get the Pierburg during the install, but do thw Walbro after all is said and done after the original install.
Pretty straight forward. I decided not to cut up the little plastic thing on the bottom as I might have a reaosn to go back to stock. So, we zip tied the snot out of it and it does not budge.YP5 Toronto said:StuttersC, how was the install? was it straight forward? no cutting?
