Fuel Pumps

Performance fuel pumps in NZ stock for turbo, supercharged and high compression builds. A performance pump moves more fuel and holds pressure where the factory pump runs out, which is usually the first thing a modified engine catches out. The range is split by how the pump mounts and how it is driven.

In tank pumps

Most street builds start with a drop in tank pump, because it stays quiet and the fuel around it keeps it cool. Deatschwerks and Walbro cover the common fitments.

Brushless pumps and controllers

Brushless pumps draw less current and run cooler, which matters on ethanol blends and long track sessions. They need a controller to run properly, so buy the pair together from Aeromotive or Deatschwerks.

External pumps and surge tanks

Once a single in tank pump runs out, you either add pumps or move to an external setup fed by a surge tank. Look at Aeromotive external pumps and Radium surge tanks.

Hangers and filters

A hanger lets you fit a larger or twin pump setup in the factory tank without cutting the floor. Pair it with a filter rated for the flow you are running: see fuel pump hangers and fuel filters.

Choosing the right pump

Size the pump on the power you are chasing, the fuel you will run and the pressure your injectors need, not on whatever fitted the last car. The fuel pump sizing guide covers the working, and the regulator range matters just as much once flow goes up.
