walbro products

i have just recently replaced my GTR fuel pump (gave up the ghost) with a walbro 500hp rated pump. this pump is much smaller and quieter than the gtr one but has a higher rating of 255lph...anyone had any experience or use a walbro pump and can tell me what you think. thanks

bah Ash.. you should have done more research on your pump before you bought it!

The pumps are not rated at the pressure on boost.. so in a turbo application they will not flow 500hp but at fairly std. boost levels, strangely enough only about 250rwkw-270rwkw.. This has been covered on here.

270rwkw is plenty for many people, depending on their applications or goals.. otherwise of course something like a Bosch 044 (at nearly twice the cost!) is more suitable.

There is actually a higher-HP Walbro than the "standard" 255L available as well.. nobody really talks about those.
