I'm debating on which fuel pump to get and need help to decide which one is more reliable. First is the Walbro, second is the supra tt and third is the aem.
My plan is to only use the maf translator along with gm 3 bar to tune with along with the afpr.

I went with a Deatschwerks DW300 universal intank pump. I was originally gonna get a Denso TT Supra pump but the price and my budget at the time didn't allow for it. So far no complaints at all, i have it running on a Single turbo 1jz. Pump drops right in with minor modification to the rubber piece that holds the stock pump in at the bottom.

Heres a link to the pump in question.

A forum post/poll including the DW300 pump.

I ran a Denso MarkIV fuel pump simply because the Walbro is supposed to be a little noisy. As for reliability, unless your doing extreme upgrades I would think they are all relatively the same. The Denso has an excellent track record... but I believe its the most expensive.

Also.. what are you trying to feed? stock or 550's? bigger?

With those injectors I would go for the denso markiv fuel pump...
Unless your on a budget, then the walbro 255 lph is a good buy. I lucked out and picked up my pump for 100.00

Im using an Aeromotive 340 LPH pump at about 500whp with no issues. Its slightly more than the walboro but less than a new MKIV pump and also flows more than the denso without being loud. I trust Aeromotive quality they are all flow tested before being shipped. there are too many fake chinese walboro knockoffs out there these days and i wouldnt want a 15 year old used pump with who knows how many miles on it.

If you really want a badass fuel pump that will support stupid power you should look into a Bosch 044 they are reasonably priced, OEM quality and flow enough to support 650WHP+ with no problem at up to 5 BAR , however they are HUGE!! I will be running one inline with my Aeromotive when i upgrade my fuel system.
