Default 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)

Might want to also look into a stock Evo 9 fuel pump, as far as i know its the highest flowing stock denso ppump. It can be bought for much cheaper also.

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.

sell the value of of going with an external setup, it should be a no brainer at 500-600 hp
