Hey guys, quick question. Fuel pumps, what do you recommend? It'll have to be an inline pump, and leaning towards braided lines (6AN)? Any kind of input would be great.
Thanks for the comment Briggs! I'm quite happy with the way the exhaust turned out so far. :)

Cheers,

Mike

I bought a Walbro pump from Summit Racing for the 20V in the Hodgepodge. It works fine with the stock Toyota pressure regulator. I ended up using AN8 fittings and the larger braided line as I was able to use fewer adapters in the system and the larger line fit on the Toyota fuel banjos easily. I am a big fan of putting shrink tubing on the ends of the hoses that do not terminate in an AN fitting then cutting through the tubing with a Dremel cut off tool to keep the ends neat.
I did have to mount the pump on rubber stand-offs to keep down the noise/vibration from the pump...it was pretty annoying. All good now.
