Field Report: More Power = More Fuel, But How?
Description
For most builds, gone are the days of zip-tying an old Bosch 044 fuel pump into place with a healthy dose of sealant, partly because these days there are simply more options but also because builds have gone from 400hp up to 1000-1500hp+ for many performance street applications, and the budgets have increased to match.

Kevin from Frenchy's Performance Garage runs us through some of the main considerations that go into some aftermarket solutions, including their own for the GTR platform being used as an example.
The 3 main problems Kevin and the team hope to solve with an aftermarket fuel pump setup are:
- Surging (lack of fuel supply)
- Mounting (lack of tidy solutions for popular pump options)
- Powering (easy to source wiring connectors)
We'll take a quick look at these points and touch on how aftermarket solutions can be integrated into your stock fuel lines and what exactly it is about stock solutions that don't work on many street-turned-race cars.
