How would this pump compare to my Bosch 044 thats mounted in my tank? I think I'm going to be barely pushing the limit of that 044+meth and would rather have a little more pump without running a dual setup. I'm trying to find #s on that bosch pump flowing at 60psi to compare to yours. Also, hows the reliability compared to the 044?

I'm sure it can be.... but it may not be designed for the application.
What you need to be sure of is that you get a pump with the factory style venturi design so it works properly. I'm not sure this will be an option with this pump. If so great...
The issue that most are missing here is if you do not need a pump this big, why worry about it. Remember pumps do not make ANY horse power, they only support what the engine is capable of. Your 550bhp is not an issue with any good 255 pump.
For reference, the stock pump in an LS1 f-body will typically support 500 crank HP. I've seen many stock ProCharged cars (which are rated at 540 crank) with a stock pump. But I've also seen many need a pump upgrade.
I'm still waiting to get my hands on one of these new 340's to test it out & see if they live up to all the hype.

Apologize for the oversite in advance but what kind of ponies with this pump support? Looking for a one pump solution to support my 800+ build (N/A) and still have some reservations on a dual pump set-up.

No one has used one to know its exact limits, from numbers I would say about 750 rwhp NA. If you do not like the tested and proven dual pump system Then you need a big single pump. We have several systems to suit anyones needs including complete intank single pump setup for well over 1500 rwhp. Give me a call I will help you spec a proper system for your needs.

Do you drive honestly drive anything else besides a search engine? Now go a taddle about how aero isnt as good as your off brand pump that you are trying to pimp because you cannot get as good a price on it.
Honestly with the products you try to push, I am surprised your arms are not ginormous from all the nut hugging you do.
Gee, I wonder who that was?
On topic, the pump looks like it will work amazingly. Now the F body guys have some sort of equivalence to the new drop in C6 pumps that you came out with not too long ago!

i push what works. sorry for me giving self learned info on a TECH site.
i have never ONCE said the DW300 is better or worst then the Aero. and same i have never said the Aero is better or worst then DW300. i want to know which is the best. i get a price break on both of them. MY (dealer ) cost is with in a few dollars of each other. so if idont need the aero i will get the DW300. but if the Aero is just that much better then i will get it. Simple.
i had a phone conversation with a well known sponsor on this site(name not said) and he stated that he is wondering if the top for the Aero(and DW300) is made out of states. Walbor owns a lot of patens on there **** and the top of both Units look just like the walbor.
Time will tell but From now on when you get ready to ride my *** about what i push. READ ALL MY POST TO GET FACTS STRAIGHT

subscribed for updates as they come, would def like other twin intank options for us E85 guys.
almost seems like these will support on E85 Turbo, what a pair of walbro will support on Gas turbo car.
Also, do these NEED a controller, or can we run them like we always have, straight to the rails with a reg??

Why would you want to run the car at 90 psi of fuel pressure anyway... from all the flow data that's been presented here, it would seem to me that running between 45 to 60 would be rmoe then adequate, unless you're trying to make up for a lack of injector flow with added pressure (which means you need a bigger injector)
If' I'm missing something please fill me in.

I run N/A cars at 58 & on forced induction I try to work backwards from the max boost referenced pressure to determine my base pressure. I typically try to design for a max of 65psi at peak boost if possible. This means a car with 20# boost would start at 43.5 base pressure. On cars with very high boost we have lowered base pressure even further with good results. The only vehicles with pressure limitations are ones with venuri transfer pumps that need a minimum pressure to operate (C5 & C6 Vette, G8, CTS & 5th gen Camaro) These need the higher 58# base pressures.
