Is there anything between the 255 and 340 that the factory module will support? I can't seem to find anything more than a 255 to drop in my factory 98 fuel tank

This product posting only applies to 99-02 cars. 1998 can support a 340LPH pump as long as the wiring (external and in-tank) and the return system (with regulator) are upgraded.

Will the factory fuel lines and regulator support the bigger pump and module?

The feed line is fine. The return system and regulator are not.

What needs to be upgraded as far as the return line and regulator?

^ I pm'ed and emailed them and no reply to this day! I guess everything I had heard about them never being hard to contact was definitely true.

And them not having a customer service phone number to call doesn't help either, oh well!

Guys, as soon as we have any new info to offer we will post it here. Sending us a PM or e-mail relative to this topic is not going to net any new info. Development and testing takes many months. When we have new product available we will post about it. Thanks!

What part of the module doesn't support the 340 pump?
I would have assumed all the wiring (both inside and outside the tank) needs to be upgraded anyways, so it can't be that.

So the twin pump 255's work but not a 340 ? what am I missing here?

Twin pumps do not support the jet pump. This is the only downside with DPs.
You will simply have to wait and see what our new system has to offer.
