Jeff Schaeffer (importreview) will tell you to gte the NOS fuel pump.

Jeff Taylor (Lip), Stephen Sekai (sgT, I think but am not sure since he had a Granatelli on his website before), and I use a modified Bosch from a Porsche sold by Endyn. Jeff S. hates Endyn.

I think both groups do not have enthusiastic recommnedations for Walbro/Holley pumps.

The Bosch is a bit of a pain to install.

cheers

standard is fine - high pressure is for those cars mainly on boost with insane amounts!! Also, high pressure fuel pumps are designed for running over 50 psi of fuel, which you aren't going to do.

I do not agreee with your statement. First of all, stock fuel pressure is 50-54psi.
Walbro is fine as long as you do not exceed 60psi. Most pumps wont like going
above 70psi.

Bottom line, if you are running a stock regulator or under 60psi then the walbro
is a good choice. If you are turbo and running an FMU then this is not the pump
for you.

What nos setup you using? A Walbro High Flow pump is perfect for a direct port setup, and a High Pressure pump will get the job done on a dry kit.
