In tank >>> inline. Wait 3 months before installing the kit, it's not that far off.

if you are gonna boost with the FMU you need the inline fuel pump. the stock pump is NOT up to the task and a walbro is borderline. if you want to run the FMU you WILL NEED an inline pump to provide enough fuel volume for the FMU.

To run an FMU, you need this pump or one with the same specs:
