According to GlassMan's figures on the other not mentioed site, the Walbro is 250/lph and the SupraTT is 260/lph. With the adapters or whatever to make it bolt in, the Walbro is about $115. I have no idea how much a used Supra pump is from the supra forum or a junk yard. Walbro FPM015 high pressure pump



Why are these fuel pumps 3-5 times as much $?

Yeah when I talked to Ray about fuel systems he said that alot of guys waste alot of money on unnessecary ****. He said he was running dual supra pumps and the same fuel line setup as Jspec. All stock lines, not upgraded **** that costs an assload of money.



He was only running a little over 600rwhp when he told me this though. Not sure if he changed anything since then.

I beleve the stock FD pump is around 180-185 lph, the supra pump is around 195 lph or so... both of them will have a drastic reduction in the amount of fuel they can flow at higher fuel pressures (like when your under boost at 20 psi and your fuel pressure hits 60+ psi).. The walboro pump will continue to flow a higher volume of fuel at much higher fuel pressures...







If your going with a single pump the walboro is your best friend to 450 hp or so.



2 FD pumps will get you up to around 650-700 hp....



2 walboro pumps should push near 800 hp..



I'm running dual walboro's and I love them...

i thought about putting a surge tank in my car, but then i decided not to, because i didn't want ppl to think i was australian or japanese



i think you only need those things if you like to make turns when you drive. i'll stick to my sump and weldon pump, thank you.....
