Is there any consensus on the best fuel pump alternative to Grams and Walbro??

Depending on your power goals walbro 255 or 450 are great pumps. If youre buying online double check that its genuine.

Ive been on the aem 320 for a few thousand miles now with no problems. But ive heard of these failing prematurely as well

Is your car 06+ with returnless fuel system? If you plan on no more than low 4s on E85 you’ll be alright with Walbro 255. I’m looking to upgrade to a Full Blown 340 and wouldn’t mind selling you my modified-to-fit Walbro.

I've been running the Aeromotive 340 for four years now without a hiccup. I had a Walpro 255 in for about three weeks. It made so much noise that I ordered the Aeromotive the same day that I got the Walpro first installed. I got lucky and only lost $10 on the sale of the Walpro.

Did you not read everyones comments? There were several other pumps suggested with real personal experiences provided by your peers. It seems a lot of people prefer the walbro over other brands because its been tested and proven to perform time and time again (despite its noise). But if you READ your own thread, im on aem320 making 500whp on e85 so far so good. Another member is on the aeromotive for several years no problem. But obviously walbro is the choice of many. If you want an inferior or less popular choice go with anything else.
Why are you even asking this question? Are you interested in a particular pump?

I'm currently running the DW300 pump without any issues with it. It's quieter than the stock exhaust, Novi1200 and Bosch water pump
