Inline Fuel Pump Install?

I have a Walbro In-Line pump that I'm going to try and install this week on my Evo because my Evo on a 35R with E85 and on only 28psi is running out of fuel up top on my modded Walbro 255.. I have searched and searched but have not been able to find a write-up on how to install an inline pump.. I'm kind of surprised at this as I thought In-Line pumps were pretty popular around here.

I had orginally wanted to do a dual pump setup but don't feel like hacking into my stock fuel pump hangar assembly and I definitely don't want to sink hundreds of dollars into a custom dual pump hangar.. so don't even bother suggesting lol.

Just need to know if anyone has some specifics as to where they mounted their inline pump, how they wired it up, etc.


Thanks in advance!

i'm going to be putting a Bosch 044 inline once my car is up and running, but i hear you can do a walbro inline too. Considering the Bosch is double the price of the walbro, if you're only just running out of fuel it might be an option

i would think just make it simple and go with the 2 intank.
inline (in-sequence) setup are good for higher pressure
parallel setups are better for more fuel volume....

adding another pump inline is much much simpler than a double pumper, especially if you dont have the room for 2 pumps in the fuel tank. All you need is a bracket to mount the fuel pump on the firewall with the correct fittings, wiring and you're done.

do what you need to, to meet your requirements.
For me, an inline pump is all i need. It's cheaper and better for my situation.
450whp(350kwatw ish) will be my goals

I have seen several inline walbro pumps run in the engine bay, on the driverside frame where the battery goes...

Move the battery to the back and put one in its place. Works fine for me and about 10 others down here.

Well I used to have my battery ran to my trunk but didnt like how trashy it looked so I got rid of it and put in a mini odyssey battery.. So I just decided to install my inline pump under the car. Should keep it cooler under there too. Lol.

On e85 how much power can I expect from an inline and intank pump setup? Ive already modded my intank walbro but thats clearly not even close to enough fuel for my setup lol.
