All Sorts of Higher-Flowing fuel pumps coming onto the market

[v8klla]

We made 640whp I believe on Kyle's 1g with a rewire, E85 and Deatschwerks pump. We were so impressed we've got 75 on the way

All data points are E85. Gasoline is generally not an issue for running out of fuel pump (for a lot of us anyways).

Ok with a rewire....I think that is an important point on these new pumps to really get the rated flow out of them. Not sure how different/important it is on a 1G vs an evo8/9 or X but I guess we will find out. I'm wondering if in 311evo's case he had the pump basically 'rewired' but running at 13.5-14v and thus was able to get so much more out of a standard un-modded 255 than others have.

Either way I'm looking at these pumps as an alternative to doing a BAP ($300-ish) on the stock X fuel pump vs just dropping in a 255($170-ish w/ adapter) and worrying that if I switch to e85 I'll max it out instantly....one of these would be $250-300 to get into an X and hopefully flow enough out of the box for my needs...then if I ever actually put a bigger snail on, do a BAP with it and really start to push one of these higher-flowing new-gen pumps...but w/o the need/complication/cost for a double-pump setup.
