No chance mate, car is locked up at Racetorque. Even if we got a new pump in yesterday Lane is not there to run a re-tune, he is back on Tuesday so I just have to be patient.

Are you suggesting Prospeed sells knockoffs? Joke.

Managed to attach the picture of the two pumps and oem swirl pot. You can clealry see the difference in length of the two pumps (DW on left, Walbro on right) approx 20mm. Pump sits in the cradle at the top of the picture, then cradle/pump drop into the pot - really really good set up that works very well at the track. Apparently EvoX's use something very similar from factory.

As you can see the pot has the level float attached to it so needs to be retained.

Racetorque reckon they can shorten the nozzle at the top of the Walbro pump on the right and get it futher into the cradle. At the moment when you put the cradle back into the pot the pump touches at the bottom.

If anyone has any other ideas or knows of other medium/high flow E85 compatible pumps that drop straight in (G3 STi 2008-2014) please let me know.

Cheers.
