Think the fuel pump relay is in the engine bay fuse box, though not 100% sure.

You don't need to drop the fuel tank for the pump, it's easier to take the back seat out for easy access.

Funnily enough was thinking about doing a guide for fuel pumps as I;'ve just bought a HR Performance 255l jobbie

Snap. Just got my Walbro through the post from the recent Group Buy. Been doing some research & found this guide.

Paul my "Snap" was getting a fuel pump @ the same time as you.

Defo not doing a guide. Not so soon after the disc & pad one. My nerves wouldn't stand it.

I can just see the camera's flash going off with all those petrol fumes wafting around.

Scott you could give Mark @ Lateral a call he may squeeze you one in @ the Group Buy rate.

Good news Scott. Mark @ Lateral seems a helpful guy. That's not a bad price as well @ £72 delivered.

No problem mate.

Found a couple of videos of fuel pump fitting for an American 06 STi which shows the basics.
