Hi Joe....they don’t list that pump in the drop down options, but do sell it in the pumps section....seems it’s the high pressure version.....not sure pros and cons of that....I have seen it mentioned somewhere in these threads....thanks

Yes they are there in the drop downs.

The high pressure pumps give you the option to turn up your base FP if required for the tune. There is no draw back.

I was quoted a price for kit with (2) 465 pumps, FC3 Controller and wiring, Fuel line of your choice, Stainless Steel Filter, Billet Bracket, 0-100 psi fuel pressure guage, Honeywell Hobbs Switch and 6ml tube of Loctite...not sure which pump that is?

Both the F90000267 and F90000274 are 450 pumps. I would confirm which ones you were quoted and as I mentioned earlier I would opt for the 274's.

yes ...I got advice/quotes from a few guys and will be going with the one that gave me the best discount
Also, depending on cost of that gauge I'd consider opting for an all in one gauge if E85 is in the future. Innovative Gauges sells a 4in1 gauge (p/n 3906) that measures your ethanol content, fuel pressure, a/f, and boost. You can snag it for about $350. You'll want it for piece of mind and convenience if you go E85. Plus I was able to get rid of all the other gauges I had on the forum to recoup most/if not all of that cost. Just a thought.

I would get the 274 pumps instead of the 267 pumps.

Unless you are running really High Boost, I don't recommend the 274's. Neither does Fore.

TI Automotive F90000267 Fuel Pump

The F90000267 (aka the "Walbro 450, 465, or 485") is one of our highest performing fuel pumps that we offer for in-tank applications. We generally recommend this fuel pump over the F90000274 when the planned system pressure is intended to stay below 80 psi (base + boost pressure).

Standard thru rail setup for me, dual 465s, used the below to activate the second pump. No issues here during Indiana's humid 95-100 F summer, highest fuel temp I saw was 112-118F

I'm in no way connected to the below company, just a customer who has used the below product.
