Hpfp upgrade
« on: September 22, 2012, 03:16:30 pm »
Beginning to lean towards a fuel pump upgrade and I know APR are the preferred way forward but I'm a little put off by the cost.
I see there are a few out there with Autotech internals and a company called hpfpupgrade.
I was thinking of buying some new Autotech internals but after reading lots of reviews there's talk of a step on the piston causing the oem seal to fail in the pump, does anyone know if the newest Autotech internals still have a stepped piston?
Or does anyone have any other suggestions for me?
Thanks

APR is the only way for total peace of mind... you get what you pay for... Otherwise Autotech Internals, if you go this route, see if you can get a new pump to fit to...

Just looked and they are 895 euros

Maybe just need to keep an eye open for a good used APR pump.
I should probably have kept the last one I bought instead of selling it before fitting it.

Does anyone know how much a new oem hpfp is?

Just bought a new oem pump so need to decide whether to send it to apr or try some internals?
Glad the pumps working well for you mate.

I know their expensive Kev but I think it's worth it in the long run. Go Apr.
