Fuel Pump Upgrade Question

mdost03 · 09-21-2015

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

mdost03 · 09-26-2015

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.

I hope it's just the pump not keeping up, I'm not 100% but I feel like 560s should be fine on pump.

Car has 167k miles on it, no idea if pump has ever been changed in the past. Will swap out and see if it fixes it once it comes.

What are you driving now a days sir?

Stock pump and stock wiring to fuel pump won't go very far. Upgrading those should give a lot more fuel.

My daily is an 06 Eclipse and the talon has turned into the project car.

DW would be my choice. I had Whinebro failures on both my Evos.

I have a Jay Racing 044 pump for $100 if your interested!

Hughes/Scheides, can we get this put in the good stuff section or stickied somewhere?
