From what everybody else has stated, the supra TT pump outflows/performs the Walboro. The TT will max out around 450 I believe. I think Rich was running a TT on his old BNR setup, and was close to borderlining that one. Please chime in at any time

Ever considered a dual set up? Or this one...
http://www.rx7store.net/product_p/ap...gtr%20pump.htm

Thats the GTR Fuel pump. You could even go dual if you needed too...to bad the "search" button wasn't working. Or you'd find LOADS of info on this stuff.

This is the one I bought from rx7.com:

http://rx7.com/store/rx7/rpnewpump.html

It's basically the Supra TT pump made by Nippondenso, but modified to flow over 25% more.

There is a thread here that has some interesting points of reference:

https://www.rx7club.com/20b-forum-95/fuel-system-options-636320/

I personally would NEVER say that the walboro is "just as good as a supra pump". The fuel pump is THE life blood of your car. Rotaries are killed by insufficient fuel. So for me, reliability is top in the consideration. I''ve heard of walboro's failing... never heard of an ND (supra) pump failure.

You can read my thoughts on the two pumps in the above thread.

FWIW, I made 470RWHp on a single supra. I will likely be using dual supra's for my 20b project.

Yep the Supra ND (NipponDenso) pump will do it but it's at the very tail end of its use, Lesley. Of course, if you supplement with alcohol, then it's a non issue, but that's just me.

Speakin' of power, a few people are makin' noise about me coming up to NY to do some tuning. Are you down?

I totally agree with Carx7. Very ironically my friends FB turbo setup dropped the rear rotor last week. His Walbro pump failed at 19psi. It is the 255gph external pump, and was about 3 years old. Personally, I will probably buy the one from www.rx7.com.
