SVT fuel pump upgrade?
#1
Need some help deciding to upgrade my stock 2001 focus fuel pump to a SVT fuel pump??? Mine currently works fine, just have the opportunity to upgrade it, so I just want to know if its worth swapping out the stock one.
05 focus se SLAMMED! 5 speed tranny swap with exedy stage 3 hypersingle clutch, raceland coils, MBRP exhaust, FSWERKS stage 2 turbo kit. Massive adjusting camber, toe arms. Steeda's HUGE rear sway bar with upgraded links. Roll bar in the back no backseats. no radio and tons of gauges!

...because RACECAR! haha

I have 42 lb injectors and close to 200 with my JRSC - no problem with fuel delivery on the stock Zetec fuel pump. Having said that - if you can get the pump inexpensively and the tank is out of the car already, might be a worthwhile upgrade - but before you do - read this:
