Anyone know the fuel pump model, or even better the spec?
Going to put a referenced fuel pressure reg on either way, but thought it would make more sense to know what the pumps capable of before binning it for an uprated item that may end up being lesser spec anyway..

Specified fuel pressure tested at idle is between 301 and 347 kilopascals, whatever they are! 45-50 psi in old money.

Considering my fuel rail will blow itself off if it's not fastened down, they're pretty effective.

lol. yeah I had a fuel regulator crack open on an old car, fuel vapour all over a nice hot engine, what could go wrong :-

Mines turbo'ed so going to be running more like 4bar/60psi fuel pressure on boost,  just want to make sure at 300-350hp it wont see any pressure drop, not that im running that high probably but better to over spec. if its likely to pressure drop at those fuel flow rates then i'll just put a bigger pump in, maybe use the oem pump as a lift pump into a swirl pot or something, or do these cars not ever suffer with fuel starvation on track?
