just take the stock FD pump and sell them to a Honda guy and fork over $200 and buy two 255lph High pressure waboro pumps.. I've had 2 in my car now for about 3 -4 years running 3.8 kgcm fuel pressure and I've never run out of fuel or had any problems with the pumps. I can also attest to about 6 other cars that have been running them for as much if not longer amounts of time also with no problems. You will need a good afermarket fuel pressure reg that can handle the volume of fuel like the Aeromotive one that summit racing sells.

Well, it works,



Jspecracer ran that. But, he jsut blew a motor because the twin stockers couldnt keep up with the fuel pressure he wanted to run.



It works, but its not the best setup ever..
He tore apart the engine and it had a few stuck corner seals all on the same rotor, so it wasn't from fuel starvation, but dual stock pumps should net you up to 500hp safley if you have big injectors and don't try to push the pumps over 3.2-5 kgcm static pressure.

A decent size Mazda aftermarket company tried to rip me for $2600 thank god I used a credit card and had the charge reversed. I purchased a j-spec and had it street ported and freshened up (new apex seals and anything else that looked worn out).

When it was ready to ship I had no where to put it but still wanted it. They sold it on me AFTER they had already charged my CC. I raised hell with them and finally got my charge reversed.





MY Dad ordered a 13B-REw from a well know junk yard in Cali. they shipped us a seized engine and charged us $2200 for it. It was rusted solid when it got here. They would not credit us back. Again we had the credit card company reverse the charge.



I bought a 3rd gen engine mount from the same junk yard for $50.. yup broken mount.



We have all been there. I only do business w/ people I know or are well known now.
