Will i need a fuel Pump??

[02stang951]

So i currently have intake, testpipe, and hypertech tune as my main power mods and the car runs great. However i would like to add a cx racing FMIC i would just like opinions from others if you think i will need a new fuel pump after this or not, because i do not have the money for a new one at this moment in time. currently it is holding up fine via dashhawk.
thanks

Deep breath adds dramatic effect.

hmm... I would think if your messing with your injectors or fuel rail then it would be a good idea to change your fuel pump as well.

I sure was rivetted by that

And to the op....another fuel pump is only necessary if your old one craps out, or starts crapping out. Another reason would be if you decide to increase your boost dramatically by putting in a different turbo, or running your stock one higher.

Now, if you add a downpipe you may experience higher boost spikes that have the potential to overwork your stock fuel delivery, but you need to add more monitors regardless so you can see the problem before it happens

An upgraded intercooler will not change your fuel delivery enough to warrant a new pump

Don't worry about it, you should be fine with stock pump. And you will love the cx racing fmic kit btw. It'll go great with your other mods.

HPFP pump will not hurt you its a safety issue..

After seeing 3 mazdaspeed 3s blow up with boltons and a tune and no PUMP I would be carefull.. I think its the Downpipe, intake, exhaust, tune that did it to those cars and no HPFP upgrade
