Default Fuel Pumps for Turbo Setup

I will soon be running an 18G turbo setup with 310cc injectors and I'll be needing a new fuel pump. Which pump would you guys recommend? What pump do you run with your turbo setup? I've heard good things about Bosch and not so good things about Walbro. Please also list where and for how much you got your pump for. Thanks

don't bother with the bosch.the walbro 255lph in mine made a safe 380whp and it is a lot less hassle.

If you are using an fmu, a bosch is a good idea. Otherwise, walbro is the way to go.

those walbro's will ONLY work if you're running an AIC or standalone. if you're using an FMU for fuel compensation you need a Bosch pump, NOS pump is also good.

Same deal as the Walbro. Walbro/Holley pumps can't take the high pressures that you get with FMU's and boost dependant regulators. They crap out at sustained pressures beyond 75psi...perhaps not right away, but they do give out - time and time again I've seen it.

After working with it, the Bosch is a damn nice pump for the money. I got mine from Endyn for 239.
