fuel pump

[strutman]

pep boys has a carter fuel pump for my car? ist hat an aftermarket high flow or a regular?

also is there any diffrence in the 1.8 fuel pump compared to the 1.5? are they different? Will it fit in my car? etc etc. i need to get a pump from pep boys that will flow high enough for the turbo and work with my car.

[strutman]

basically, what other cars fuel pump can i buy that is a direct fit for mine that will flow much better for the turbo?

[Project Protoge]

I already told you which one is a direct bolt in.

[strutman]

well i've decided to go with an inline fuel pump AND leave my stock pump in and just wire them to turn on at the same time.

[strutman]

anyone know how big the fuel line is under the hood so I know what size to get?

[strutman]

why? what would/could go wrong?

I may be wrong at this, but this is how i see and inline fuel pump causing problems.

Just picture one straight line with a tank of whatever at the end. right at the tank you have a pump, just for numbers, say it flows(and this is just coming out of my arse) 10 Litres an hour....okay, so its 10 LPH...then further down, you add another one in, but its aftermarket so it flows more, say 15LPH...now, that second one has to suck and extra 5 LPH through the first pump, but that could be difficult to do, and will probably damage the first pump. if it cant pull that extra 5lph through the pump, then it will start to create a vacuum between the two pumps, and that defeats the purpose of youwanting two pumps.

Or perhaps it flows the same rate...now that wont do anything at all except create a restriction in the lines...and hopefully you would be able to stay away from ones that flow less, because that would be pointless in a whole new way of thinking.

Hopefully i made some sense and was accurate at the same time =)

Hey man, just spend 99 dollars to get an aftermarket one that is nice. The Walbro 255 LPH fuel pump made for the RX7 is a direct fit. If you want to spend even MORE money, go get the Venom Fuel Pump made for our car. You have options so don't slack off during a delicate process. If Edwin says it is disaster, take his advice literally. He does know what he's talking about. I have a Walbro fuel pump and its sitting in my car... waiting to be cranked up for other reasons haha.

Walbro 255 LPH Fuel Pump on Ebay : $99+
Venom SUPER COOL Hi-Performance Electric Fuel Pump : $166+

Again, those are two options for a TURBO project. Hopefully you'll learn to heed the advice of members on this forum because we are here to help, not to hurt you. That's why your here

[strutman]

i checked the threads but the ebay link is inactive so i cant tell what year rx7 to get the pump for.

[Torped0]
