My guess would be yes, I have swapped from manual to electrics on several applications... not the rx7, but fuel pressure is fuel pressure.



Just don't quote me on it LOL



Now if you ask me if you can use the FI pump from a FI VW on a carbed VW I can defientely say yes LOL

I know with the Walbro, their instructions say the pump is for use only with rotary fuel injection systems? Just curious, which model did you pick up?

This is the fuel pump im using ...



well ****..click my links on my sig...it will push up to 110 gph ..and good up to 14lbs of fuel..Im only pushing 7 lbs for a 600 dbl pumper...Remeber a stock one pushes only 4///

I got my fuel pump for $120. but you can get it a little cheaper.AND they come with a regulator..

Only problem I have had with the fuel pump..is its kinda loud...but *** it ..My whole car is loud..
