Best fuel pump PE, or Supra TT?

WRXThis · 11-12-2001, 12:54 PM

Just wondering what your guy's thoughts are on what the best fuel pump for the WRX would be. I am planning some STI injectors and a PE1820 turbo but the fuel pump I am still deciding. The Supra flows a bit more then the PE but I heard that bigger isn't always better with fuel pumps. Your thoughts?

Both probably flow more than enough for most people's needs. The reason people opt for the Supra pump is because it is more readily available and cheaper, plus adequate for fueling needs. The R34 skylines have a 195 lph fuel pump and the PE flows 210 lph if that is any indication of what the little PE is capable of. Not to mention, the PE is suppose to be very quiet, although I don't know if the Supra one is suppose to be loud or not. Just my take on the whole thing.

Nissan 300zx TT fuel pumps are way better than Supra pumps. Supra guys use 300zxTT fuel pumps when they upgrade.

When we start needing to push past 4 825cc injectors, we should consider the 300ZX pump (6*550 / 4, which represents the flow limits of the Supra pump). Basically, the Supra is a bad-ass pump

Isn't someone selling this in a kit, btw?
take care,

A valuable resource for DSMers. They have the best prices on Supra Pumps. $180.00

Damn, price went up. It use to be $165 or so.

WRXThis · 11-12-2001, 03:24 PM

Where is the fuel pump at and how hard of an install is it? Also a part number for the Supra fuel pump would be nice?

alfriedesq · 11-12-2001, 03:28 PM

I'd agree that the flow is good enough on both . . . . on my car the PE is very quiet - even more than the stock one - - have not yet heard the supra - - - and agree that PE may be hard to get

Not that hard to get. I had some in stock last week and will have more soon. Supra ones are cheaper though.

subywan-kenobi · 11-12-2001, 04:12 PM

Well, all I meant by hard to get is because PE is an overseas company while the Supra fuel pumps can be bought on this side of the pond and probably from many different sources. As far as I know, Dan and Jan are the only ones supplying the PE stuff..........hey that rhymes
