The Aeromotive and the Paxton are the same pumps. Paxton just puts their name on them. The Aeromotive pumps and regulators work pretty well especially if you drive them on the street. Just stay away from the SX pumps and regulators, I have had bad experiences with them. The Weldon's are nice to but can't be street driven.

i have an aeromotive pump and its is workign fine so far. weldons are big dollars. like over 1000.00 with regulator.

My SX pump came apart internally and lost flow but didn't shut off. Since it didn't shut off completly it cost me an entire motor (25psi of boost and low fuel pressure don't mix ). A few months later I got the Aeromotive Eliminator pump with my -6 SX regulator. I started having a fuel pressure spiking problem. I was told that the seat that the spring loaded regulator ball sits on gets messed up. When I took it apart, sure enough the ball had sunk into the seat and it was now oblong. I am not sure I just had bad luck with both of them but I would never buy another SX part again. Alot of racers use SX parts and don't seem to have a problem, so who knows.
