I'm looking to make sure my T2 doesn't run lean due to insufficient fuel pressure. The stock pump (and the car) has 99k on it. I'd like to replace it for safety's sake. Should I go with a new stock pump or something with a higher flow capability? The car is stock now, but I'm interested in making it faster. The stock exhaust is shot, so I'll be putting in a new downpipe, single highflow cat and new cat-back system very soon. Is the stock pump okay to use with some performance mods? Is it bad to run a hi-flow, hi-pressure pump on a stock T2? Any recommendations?

If you plan on modifying the car then a better pump would be a good idea. I've been using the ND pump made for Supras, and it works well.

Is that a direct bolt-in replacement? Does it fit in the tank the same way the stock pump does? And oh yeah, what does that sucker sell for? :eh:

It usually goes for about $250. It bolts right in.

I bought one of those a while back, and it went bad pretty quickly. Supposedly there's a warranty, but I'd rather pay more and not have it fail.
