Hey peeps I've just bought some 60lb dekkas to pit in my bf. Just wondering what your thoughts are on what pump I should get? Anyone bought one of eBay? I've heard walbro are the way to go but don't really kno much about em.

Cheers

Walbro pumps are a good cheaper upgrade but you will have to learn to live with the noise of it. You can buy a complete drop in kit for about $250 or so.

The other option is using a surge tank with the Bosch pump that goes inline with the standard intak pump and is mounted on the chassis rail under the car in the engine bay. You can get these from process west or plazmaman. They arnt cheap ($900-$1100) but are pretty much silent and a safer option for anything over 300rwkw.

You have to watch your fuel level with the walbro pump as they like to cough and splatter with anything under 1/3 of a tank under full throttle due to the pump not being able to pick up enough fuel from a sloshing petrol tank

So pretty much that canister looking thing on those units is the fuel pump? Sorry for the noob question. Still trying to learn all this stuff. And that will flow 350 rwkw no problem with 60lb injectors?

Yeah that's the pump.

Are those drop in kits pretty easy to install on a sedan?

If you are on a budget go the walbro , but make sure you stay over half a tank. But the ideal setup is a surge tank.
