Arrow Which Pump?

So i just finished putting together my 5.3 turbo setup, im hitting the dyno in a few weeks but still need a fuel pump!

My question is, whats the best pump for me? Im looking for something to support 550-600whp on pumpgas and something that will drop right in with little to no modifications!

Im already planning on ordering the hotwire kit, just wondering what's the best intank pump for my setup!

Thanks!

Purchase a Racetronix from one of the vendors who support these forums.
Yuo will receive the correct direct replacement pump for your application.

an equivalent 255 kit would do you good. I cannot emphasize how important it is to get the new wiring harness with it.

Lonnies, NastyN8, or Racetronix.

Wasn't sure the 255 was enough, was thinking the aero 340 or Bosch 044, but wasn't sure if they would drop in?

i don't think they have drop in 340 for our cars...but it doesn't hurt to check. search aeromotive and see, or talk to Lonnies / NastyN8. I can't remember if they made 340s drop in for 01 or not.

a bosch 044 would be plenty, I have that for an external pump.

I tried searching to see if anybody has used the Bosch 044 as a intank pump, but didn't really find a deff. Answer?
