100k Service Should I Upgrade The Fuel Pump

[Munna1]

Going to get my 100k service done shortly and im wondering if I should upgrade the stock fuel pump while Im at it? Car produces 195rwkw as is and I am getting a exhaust cam gear installed and tuned while the cam belt is getting changed. So should I upgrade the fuel pump to? or just get the condition of the stocker checked?

thanks

If you plan on adding more mods, creating more power etc, then yeah it might be a good idea. They aren't the most expensive thing to buy, but it could be added now for some convinience.

No after the cam gear I have no mods planned. To expensive for my liking as new turbo, injectors, ECU, AFM, ect will be needed.

How are the AFRs? If it start to run lean at high rpm, you need to upgrade. If not, dont bother.

AFR's where fine on the last dyno tune they actually had to take a lot of fuel out up top so I guess it will be fine.

I'd consider upgrading

190rwkw is pushing it with the stock pump, grab a bosch 040, it's good security against fuel pump failure / leaning out in the future, which can blow engines.

stock pump will be pushing 10-15 years most likely with 150-200% the amount of power it was designed to handle!

When you put it that way I guess its probably worth upgrading better to be safe than sorry.
