has anyone used a supra fuel pump?
i wanted to use a denso supra fuel pump in my turbo build because its quiet, and it would seem more reliable than a walbro.
my main concern is that the supra pump draws nearly 20 amps at 45psi and a walbro 255 draws like 7 or 8 amps at 45psi.

this is a idea i have had for months, just have not put my hands on the supra pump yet to see its size, power requirements are not a problem, just use factory power wire for switching on a relay and run a new power wire (i already do this on high HP cars using the 255hp)
i know the walbro pump is good to 550 hp - and i have pushed them to 600 with a rewire and relay, but would not do that on a daily driver, but again at these hp levels the fuel line sizes are to small and need to be upgraded, so a real pump (external with modified fuel tank pickup is what really should be done) but getting a customer to spend a couple thousand on fuel system is hard to do.

for 99 bucks like most sell the walbro for, and for the hp it supports why go to a supra pump?
