Im currently serving in Iraq and plan on purchasing parts for my X in a couple weeks. My parts list is full bolt-ons, GT35R Turbo Kit, cams and valve springs, Fuel Rail Kit and 800cc injectors. With these parts do I need to upgrade my fuel pump? Or will I be ok with the fuel rail and bigger injectors?

 

yea i think u need it

 

i think theres some debate about the pump since you are only going to 800cc's... but it for sure wont hurt any.
and if you one day decide you want more power and 1000cc's.. its just one less thing to worry about.

 

Thanks for the advice.

 

The only debate is if it's worth risking your car going lean under high boost after you have spent several thousand dollars on a turbo upgrade. Spending $100-$400 getting a higher capacity fuel pump in place seems like a no brainer to me! Both the stock fuel pump and injectors are questionable past 425 crank HP, which is usually just a little more power than a full bolt on stock turbo Evo X will put out.

Any aftermarket turbo upgrade worth anything will require an upgraded fuel pump and injectors to be able to run decent boost on.

 

Just buy the fuel pump. It is a very small price to pay in the grand scheme of things. Like the above posters said "better safe then sorry"

 

Again Thanks for the help.
