Default Fuel pump on sti

Hi

Not long had my blobeye sti and apart from exhaust I'm going to fit its completely standard. I'm not planing to remap it but would I benefit from fitting an unrated fuel pump. Just looking to keep it nice and reliable

10 year old car now that fuel pump is probably on the tired side fit a hrc or walbro pump fit the exhaust k&n panel filter job done although if you can stretch for the remap it will blow you away what is hidden behind the stock settings/map

Regards

Dave

When I spoke to Andrew Carr about my car, he mentioned that the PPP blob STi cars have got a 225lpm pump so doesn't need changing, but otherwise it's a well worthwhile upgrade.

Hope that's accurate and helps answer your question.

I used to sell the ppp pack and I don't remeber selling a fuel pump as part of it

Blue intercooler hose
Second cat pipe
Rear box

I did a quick forum search and found a few references to a debadged walboro 255 pump being fitted as part of PPP. I don't know for sure though!

I`d fit an uprated one not an unrated one...Doesnt sound very good that one

On a serious note for the cost of one it would be worth while to be on the safe side if you have no way of monitoring your fuel pressure etc...
