Fuel Pump Question..

[EVL-R33]

I recently went to purchase a bosch 040 fuel pump, and my supplier got me an 023 model.. he reckons its bigger and pumps more fuel. But ive never heard of it..

Has anyone used one before?

Is it worth installing?

Cheers.

I have read very little about these pumps, but what he is saying is also the same as what I have read.

It's supposed to be a slightly bigger version of the 040 which looks the same, and is of a similar size but flows more.

If its a genuine BOSCH item there shouldn't be any issues with it.

Apprently is supports about 700hp + and flows something like 300L/hr. (approx)

They are an intank pump so should go in with a few slight adjustments.

THanks for the quick reply abu, its definitely a genuine pump, and he told me the same thing, that its good for around 700hp, and its very similar to the 040 with an open base.. I'm getting it installed next weekend, hopefully things will go smoothly.

040 is rated at a higher pressure so it is a moving feast on flow rates but 023 flows more.

i just installed a bosch 023 in my bros r33, its the same pump as the 044 (external) but its the internal version so it can pump much more than the 040 and it has an open base for the pick up. It isnt that hard to install, a bit of playing around and you'll get it sitting at the same height as the stock pump.

EVL-R33 - If not too much trouble, do you think you could get some good close up pictures of the pump IN / OUT and any serial numbers?
