    Recommend a fuel pump for 400bhp

    Evening lads

    Rs2 setup apart from s2 aby fpr

    I guess it's going to be 044, when I do a search on here there appears to be quite a few to choose from. Which is the one I need and where from ? I'm aware there are copies doing the rounds etc

    Any help appreciated cheers !

    RS2 pump relayed will be fine, if not go directly for a 044

          A pump from a 2.2/2.3 k-jet engine will do 5-600hp (depending on voltage and fuel lines)

            I wish the 044 was a fit and forget. It's too bloody noisy for my liking.

                  I must agree. For the last 2 years the only time I have ever heard the pump was when it was either overworked, or fuel was too hot or low. I cannot hear the pump pretty much at all.

                    Widely spread myth, which is incorrect.
                    K-Jet pump runs out at 380hp and pressure drops like a brick.

                    It can do high pressure, but it's flow capacity isn't good.

                        My 044 is just in the background but there are other more interesting turbo / exhaust noises that block it out

                            So is there a part number that is commonly used or what pressure needed ?

                            Thanks again boys

                              I've got my eye on a Walbro 400 E85 pump, it flows a ton but I want it for the E85 part.
