That's what I've got. I got it because it's what everyone else seems to use, never heard of any issues, and the price is right. I reccomend the plug and play voltage booster, it's a simple install and should be worth the extra $. I say it llke that because I'm still in the process of putting my car back together so I haven't used it yet!

Never heard anything bad about them. I'm running the Racetronix and it works great.

Thats the best bolt-in peice to get. Just get the hotwire plug n' play kit and the pump and your good to 600fwhp.

There are like 2 actual manufacturers of performance dropin pumps for these cars, Walbro and cheap chinese garbage.

Holley, Granatelli, racetronix, etc. are all reboxed Walbro. The Racetronix version fits best and as said the wiring upgrade is great too. If you buy one of the other quality brands you are buying the same basic pump with more fitment hassles and less supporting parts in the box.

I bought my fuel pump from racetronix. its a walbro 255lph pump and then i also got racetronix plug and play wiring harness that gives you more fuel at full throttle. it well worth it, so i would get it. i have had mine in for over a year and not a single problem. although i will say its a louder pump than stock. like you can hear it running even over my exhaust. but its a very good setup. also pretty well priced too.
