Either way. Install kit just makes life a little easier and a tad cleaner.

At what point do you think the fuel pump is needed? HP numbers?

That is based upon BSFC used on the car. When you try to add more fuel and it just will not add it and your injectors have a fair amount of fuel to push, this is when a fuel pump and/or regulator is determined.

No word from them....

Universal Walbro 255 and you have to have the install kit to install the pump cause the clip from the factory pump is much smaller then the walbro one and you have to hardwire the pump.

You want the 342 Pump and Supra Clip.

Pretty Easy

Take the backseat out, like 10 screws, unclip 3 harnesses, pull out, disconnect, un assemble the shell, put new pump in, reinstall
