An uprated fuel pump wont solve fuel starvation.

There is an inherent design issue with the fuel pickup on subies. I dont believe this pump solves that.

I have found the stock fuel pump is ok... I monitor fuel pressure. The only reason some of us guys run "uprated" pumps is for the surge tanks we run. The principle of a surge tank requires a secondary pump.

I know PS are designing a surge tank. Damn, everyone is copying us

Andy, it depends on if you have had any form of starvation when cornering. If you have then buy it.

My own car surffers with 3/4 of a tank of petrol. I was pushing a BIT hard at the time.

If you intend to do track days then this would well be worth the price.
