Are you talking about the Walbro fuel pumps? That link is:http://members.home.com/syclone/APE/fuelpump.html

I ordered that pump last week. It came the other day. Overall a vry nice pump, came with all things needed for install. Not to noisy. Works great. Definatly better than getting ripped off for $250-350 for some of the pumps other dealers sell

Get the high pressure pump. You'll need it if you want to run higher fuel pressures.

I noticed that the 255 High Pressure was smaller also...Oh well...everything works fine...Very easy to do...

The Supra Pump puts out the same amount of pressure/lph

Hey Rotary 93 did u have air/fuel gauge on car? Anyhow today i test dorve my car and I noticed the gauge led read less than before I cahnge the stock denso pump. I don't how it can read less because the denso pump filter was very dirty. Also i thought a bigger pump will be better? Hey let me know what u find out.

Everything is running fine...Didnt see any problems after 100 miles of driving...Hope you are using the new sock(filter) that came with the pump....

Air/fuel looks fine....

I bought a brand new Walbro in-tank pump off ebay for $28. Capable of up to 500hp or something like that and designed for turbo/nitrous applications.
Ebay is the bomb, saved me $100+ on that one
