if you can still not get it then don't.

the FD fuel pump is overkill for the n/a and will result in less hp and less fuel economy. even in stock form the n/a runs on the rich side, with an upgraded fuel pump it will be even moreso.

if im busy just keep calling.. :P

/\ that's true about the N/A

IF you want more power, get a header for that car.... this thread reminds me so much of when I first got my vert running again after completely redoing half the car... it was a pain doing all the diagnostics, but in the end I learned so much, it really helped me when I got my TII.

well.... thanks guys but what I did since I work at a shop that purchases more then 10k of parts a month from our parts distributor... i took my stock one into work and told them i had a deffective fuel pump they sent over last summer.. they exchanged it without any hesitation and gave me another year warantee... see its real hard to track everything we buy so if they cant find it they usually believe our word and swallow the cost

it took and extra day to get so... why not?

anyone else wanna gimmy a free fuel pump?
