    I am doing a NA to TT conversion along with turbo and injector upgrade so the NA pump will not keep up
    A new TT pump from Coz is $300 plus freight Hmmmm
    Bosch 044 is an option but wont like running less than 12 volts

    My concern with full 12 volts on a 40 deg day at traffic lights or heavy traffic - air cond on - low fuel level in the tank - the fuel will get warmer - yes the fuel temp sensor will compensate but the factory pump set up would be an advantage in this senerio
    Walbro have this for a 350Z which will have plenty of flow

    Didnt really get a sensible answer when I asked about running at less voltage
    Need to contact Walbro direct I think
    This was a good reference - been on the forum a few times - good read

    My latest idea is to run 2 Walbros - 1st pump does everything up to the point where boost comes on and then the second pump come on
    This could be achieved with my TT ECU and exsisting NA Fuel controller
    Comments please

    The TT pump will work, no guesswork, no adapting, proven.
    Theres lots of other options around, but at what additional cost to make it work ...

    Use the stock tt pump.

    For that power a new TT pump will be fine. If you are worried about voltage drop, run some larger dedicated fuel pump power cables out to the pump direct from the battery through a relay.

    Running twin at that power level is overkill - if a new TT pump is too much try and find a good condition used one
