We could have another Thomson damn and your household tap wouldn't know the difference.

Its a good mod if you plan to do other "major mods" in the future, however a stock pump will be fine up to 175rwkw, as witnessed on FordFreak EF's old EF Fairmont.

Research a little more, falcons already run rich, more fuel isn't the answer, and as above, std pump will fuel well over 140kw.

I admit that was harsh and not called for.
but using the search and reading sticky's would have given the same answer you 'weren't' looking for.

Spend the $150 but not on the fuel line for a NA.

you can actually get a power gain from this lol the electric ones.

the only reason i would change the fuel pump is if i was boosting it but thats it...noob question
