20B fuel pump

anyone running one? comments?

is it true that a high flow/pressure pump can cause you to run a little rich?

Yeah if you don't tune the car. I don't see why you would need anything more than a Warlboro 255 pump anyway though. I know guys that are running T-78's and that pump is doing just great for them. Plus, I'm sure it's cheaper than a 20B pump too. Hope that helps. Laterz.

i don't believe you can really get the real benefits of a larger fuel pump unless you are running higher fuel pressure or larger injectors. But the fuel pump is a bit of added security. Remember to upgrade the grounding on the fuel pump as well (something i need to do).

what i meant by the grounding is that sometimes the ground can wear, other members have noticed the stock ground for the fuel pump wears, or the connector isn't as effective. Upgrading that ground or changing that ground can improve things. I'm not really sure, but you don't have to get a fuel pressure regulator, i just meant the regulator could be used if you have an upgraded pump, but do not get upgraded sec. injectors.

Upgraded secondaries are a good thing. But steer clear of the 1300's. They are nothing more than modded 850's. If you're gonna go bigger go 1600's from Bosch as they are a stock part. It's worth the money for them and the fuel rail you'll have to buy. Just my .02

Well to upgrade to 1600 you don't have to buy a new fuel rail you'll just have to modify the fuel rail you have now! Just take it to a drill press and messure the diameter of the oring and drill away! The 1300 do suck *** tho from what i have heard!
