Default Uprating fuel pump

Heyup chaps and chapesses,

If i drop in an uprated fuel pump into my MY02 Wrx PPP will it be ok. Next year i'm looking into a few mods and have managed to get hold of Walbro, I know it won't give any performance gains but just wondered if it'd be ok to run with it in now ?

Cheers
Mark

Thought the ppp kit came with an uprated fuel pump anyway?




could be mistaken though.

hey guys just thought id let you know that rigga is right they uprate the fuel pump on wrx ppp, and don't on the sti, the other difference between the wrxppp and the stippp is an uprated intercooler hose as the sti has already got a prodrive hose too, hope this helps

Thats wrong, they uprate the Sti pump not the WRX, since the PPP is setup to be without fitting a Walbro will run it rich.

But why bother, unless you have a known reason, lean running etc, then it should be fine as set up by prodrive.

cheers
