UK Spec fuel pump (Denso?) questions

Recommended Posts

So I know this has been covered quite a few times but I wanted to double check before I go and spend some money I might not need to.

 

Advice from any BPU UK spec owners would be appreciated.

 

On my quest for BPU I've just been doing a few searches and discovered that the UK spec fuel pump is better in a fair few ways compared to the Walbro 255. Such as better flow, longer life span and quieter. My first question is, is this correct and I should stick with the UK spec fuel pump at BPU?

 

Secondly, if the UK spec fuel pump is better, would it be worth buying a brand new part (Denso?) from Toyota? As mine is getting on a bit.

 

Lastly, where would be the best place to buy a UK spec one one without breaking the bank?

 

Cheers guys.

Yes the uk pump flows slightly more (I *think*from memory 260Lt/hr) and is quieter, a Walbro 255 pump will be cheaper if you do want to fit a new one and flows enough to run a moderately sized single turbo. The UK/J spec pump fitment is different in the hanger you would need Walbro part number GSS341 to fit a uk spec.

Im looking to get a new fuel pump myself for bpu. After a bit of research im thinking about buying a HRC fuel pump. Quieter than walbro and comes with 2 year warranty unlike the 1 year you get with a walbro. Also "apparantly" the pump is made by nippon denso who as you know make the stock ones. More research is needed on the matter before i spend money. The HRC ones are much cheaper as well.
