Hey people.:) I am gonna do a new fuel pump soon. I am wondering what you guys/gals recomend. I have seen a racetronics unit & am liking it. I want something that is better than stock but will be a plug & play deal. Any Ideas feel free to share them. It will need to support around 380 RWHP NA & if I ever decied to grow balls maybe an additional 150 shot!!!:gotnx:

Thanks..:feedback:

Have fun changing it out. It wouldn't be too bad if you have a lift. I've actually seen people cut the top of the floor out to change it. It's definitely a lot easier/quicker, but I wouldn't do it to one of my personal cars.

Thanks. :thumbsup:

Actually I am strongly considering the home made access panel in the hatch. I see nothing wrong with it at all. Plus I have the ability to make it look like a factory deal..:dance:

Whatever makes you :) . I agree that cutting the panel wouldn't be that bad if it is done nice and clean. I've seen people hack the sh!t of the floor and peel it back.:( I'm sure you wouldn't do that since it's your personal car. Good luck.

Sump the tank, Gravity fed external inline standalone Aeromotive fuel pump (600 lbs / hr) , Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator with return , Steel braided supply and return lines, tig welded fuel rails to incorporate AN fittings.

Stuff like that.
