Fuel Pump Questions
I have a 98 TA with full bolt-ons and a 150 wet kit (Fogger), my question is do I need to upgrade my stock fuel pump? I have been researching the Walbro 255 and for 100$ it seems like it would solve my problem. Thanks for any help you can offer me.

At your power level, it would be a good idea to upgrade.
But the $100 generic pump will likely cause you problems.
There are direct fit pumps that are only slightly more. The Racetronix kits that I sell are complete with the correct mounting, a new fuel sock, all internal wiring (no splicing), plus the correct fuel hose.
Also you should upgrade to a plug-n-play wiring harness to ensure proper voltage to the bigger pump.
I have 98 kits in stock if interested. Feel free to give me a call if I can help.

yea like he said it would definatley be a good idea and they arent that expensives for the insurance it gives you and like he said the racetronix and the harness is the way to go all plug and play no splicing or anything

Thanks for the PM, right now its looking like I will have to go with the walbro. The problems I have seen so far only occur if you run your tank too low. And I never run it past a quarter tank, so that problem really shouldn't affect me.

I haven't heard of these problems. I just thought the basic pump would suffice because I am done adding power for a long time. I have trouble hooking right now as it is; so next on the list is rear end and suspension.
