Don't Buy From Ebay or Ask for Certificate of Origin if bought locally & installed. eg. Mao. EvoR will supply/show the "'Certificate of Origin" as proof that it is indeed a real pump being installed & not a Chinese knockoff.

Walbro Fuel Pumps 255L and 400L http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/evolutio...255l-400l.html: I will be stocking the Walbro pumps and be given a legal document in the form of a 'Certificate of Origin'. If your vendor does not have this certificate of origin, chances are that you have purchased a Chinese pump.

yeah yeah, been through all of that years ago, even the genuine walbro's aren't that crash hot, when you can get an aeromotive for same price why bother?

once you've felt the weight & seen the quality of the aeromotive 340 you'll want one too

even mao recommends a different pump to the walbro's for gd's:

FWIW, the DW pumps are very widely used in the states by the WRX crowd and come very highly rated ahead of both the walbro and aeromotive pumps.
