1) if they are installed properly, they are very good and will support over 600hp.

2) seen them from about 400 - 550

3) They are a bit tricky to get in, some of the fittings can be hard to find. If you do a search, there is a good thread that covers installing pumps not too far back.

What sort of hp are you chasing? Cos there are some other good options available that are cheaper and easier to install.

Do they have a mounting bracket that sits the 044 pump properly in the right spot or do they re-use the old bracket? Because mine is a little bit mangled :) I wouldn't mind buying something that puts it in the right position. At the moment I'm contemplating running a longer hose to pick up the fuel from lower.

jee u must know them well,i havnt seen them under $300 and i have bought a few,just bought 2 for my r32 and cost me $600 and then to fit intank and do it properly you need about $75 in fittings and also labour to fit into the tank.

u paid $320 for a $450 minimum job,are u sure its not an 040 or another brand pump.

No surge for me unless I'm below the empty line on the gauge (<8-10 litres). I know why it's doing it though, it's because the pickup doesn't go as far down into the tank because the pump is in a different position. One day when I can be bothered I'm going to take it out and put in some longer hose so it gets the fuel from further down in the tank.

If yours is doing it with half a tank you probably have a dodgy install. Have you got the original pick-up fitted to the bottom of the pump or is the fuel going straight into the pump?

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
