Got a fuel pump, updated with fitting pics
« on: August 14, 2009, 02:40:20 pm »
Picked up a new APR HPFP today, think I said I'd have 1 before the end of the month in the "too fast post", should have said the end of the week :laugh:.

After a bit of research I went for the APR pump, there are other fuel pump options, you pay your money and make your choice as far as I'm concerned :smiley:



I'm going to fit the pump tomorrow and will post some pics as I do it, would have done it today but I can't get a new follower untill the morning which I'm going to change while the pumps off.

Then it will be stage 2+ next week :happy2: :smiley: :smiley:
