View Full Version : Fuel Pump Upgrade Question

So I'm going to be upgrading my fuel pump soon and would like some opinions on which to go with. I was initially just going to throw a 255 pump in, but now I'm seeing DW has their DW300 pump and Aeromotive has their 340 Stealth pump also. Right now, I would just be using it with gas and running around 20psi on the e16g turbo, but eventually want to run e85 in the future so I'd like a pump that can handle that as well. Anyone have experience with any of these new pumps? I'm wanting a drop-in pump instead of an in line setup so I'd like one of these I listed.
Thanks!

My DW300 has been great, no issues logged over 55lb/min with it on E85.

Did it install just like a walbro pump?

^Yep.
IIRC it might be physically smaller which is nice, not as loud either. Still have fuel left in it to turn up the boost. I think it's done 500-550whp on a dynojet on E85 before.

From what I've read, these pumps really like higher voltage so a BAP can probably up that a bit too on ethanol. I'm leaning towards trying out the DW300 I think. Thanks!

Good thinking I could try a bap before I jump to a 450.

I've always ran 255HP's.

255 will handle all you'll ever throw at that 16g

I went with the DW300, wanted to try something new since I've had walbros wear out quickly in the past. Also a fuel lab fpr kit to go with it. I noticed I'm leaning out up top, stock pump, fpr, and evo injectors can't keep up.
