fuel pump

Will a 2ltr 8v fuel pump run a c20let ok? Whats the best one to run will be phase 2 power thanks.:)

It will run fine - but will be close to maxing out... go for a Walbro 255 or Bosch 044 to be sure.

I run an 044 just not worth scrimping on the pump and melting pistons due to underfur ing also remember to replace the fuel filter if it hasn't ben done for years as they can easily restrict flow

Thought all the 2litre mpi pumps were the same?

Standard ones are similar walbroo and Bosch 044 arnt standard and let's face it is a 20 year old pump gonna be as efficient as a new one, also it's so tempting to up the boost and then the pump needs replacing regal used to recommend a pump upgrade with any eds kit even phase 1 so think that says it all really not worth the risk imo
