Bosch aftermarket fuel pumps.....
Be weary folks....
Turns out the one we put in the UrS for vaughn, the new owner of my old love....was a dud.
Pump had enough pressure and volume to start the car and drive without boost - but the moment you laid into the throttle, it fell on it's face and nearly died.
Ordered a new OEM pump, installed today, problem gone. Old pump will be going back to AutohausAZ.

AMD has said here that the Walbro pumps they sell have a lifetime warranty.
And that thread does have some helpful info on the flow rates of the different Bosch pumps, and why our pumps kack at higher pressures.
Walbro for me.

The 034 walbro pump is just the pump itself.
it needs some custom work (some sort of ring) to fit in the stock basket as it is slightly smaller in diameter than our Bosch OEM pump - per Jason at AMD.
