90124, Which fuel pump to buy?
Posted by satal95, Jun-01-05 10:42 PM
Well right now i'm thinking of getting a walbro 255 fuel pump since i'm going to be turbo soon but i just found this one on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7977259674&category=33555
what do u all think try this one for basically $80 shipped or pay the extra few dollars and stick with the walbro. lkm

The title and note in the body text should be enough:

255 LPH FUEL PUMP Eagle Talon Turbo 95-99 WALBRO*
* This is NOT a Walbro pump

That is shady enough that I would never even consider buying anything from these guys. If you plan on getting a stage I or II turbo kit, I would only buy a Walbro 255 lph High-Pressure pump (or one with an equivalent flow curve from a reputable manufacturer). You'll need the high pressure capability with stock injectors. A mystery 600 hp pump on e-bay could be more trouble than it's worth.
