Default Fuel pumps

Is there a difference between rcm fuel pump and a walbro pump or is it just the price and the name ?

If the part numbers are the same, then it's just RCM tax for a nice box.

I think I had a pump off him in the past is he called Darren? If it is I bought one him and went to get my forester mapped by Andy car the pump failed. So I'm a bit sceptical about it now

Scoobyworx colossus are individually numbered and tested; Darryl gives them an extra years warranty, so 2 years. HRC dont seem to have great reviews

Darryl had a batch of pumps from his previous supplier that failed; he said he replaced and upgraded all of them. He then changed to the current supplier, and because of this the current pumps have individual manufacture numbers, are fully tested, and the extra warranty
