Default Which pump?

Fuel pump, that is.

So far got a prodrive down pipe and decat up pipe.
Going to include a panel filter and a proper service and get it mapped.
I don't expect, nor am I going to claim, anything record breaking, just looking to make the most of what is there.
So, I've read a lot of contradicting spiel about fuel pumps. Walbro seems popular, as does HRC. I know that lots of people say it, but I won't be going any further than this engine-wise.
Recommendations? Experiences?
And, for that matter, does anyone have experience of different panel filters?

Thanks

Most brands are good. I have had a couple of walbros and never had a problem.

Which ever you go for, just make sure you get it from a reputable supplier like Alyn @ AS Performance.

rcm or swrd colossus seem to have best reputation as they offer 2 year warranty and can trace every pump they sell as i think im right in saying none have ever failed

i have the scoobyworx pump in mine and it's been no bother at all, I believe their newer ones (the SWRD colossus i think it is) flow even better.

I've got an 03 WRX wagon. I've purchased and installed the Scoobyworx Colossus 290lph pump, and so far it seems ok. Installation was relatively straight forward as well
Mods:
Simota panel filter
Decat up pipe
Prodrive sport cat
Decat mid pipe
Blitz nur spec R cat back
NGK PFR7B plugs
Standard 2 port solenoid.
Standard turbo
Standard injectors

Remapped last week (ECU Tek) - 284bhp and 285lbft.

They are ... Darrell has all his pumps 10% tested before they are put into stock, so you know what you receive will work right first time
