if your going over 300bhp then buy the walbro but if not then the cupra pump is plenty and £40 is not a bad price

also if your going for high fuel pressure eg 5bar+ then the cupra pump will break

4 bar is overkill on most so 5 will be useless  :wink:

true 3bar is sound on a good map but then again I got around 210bhp with only 5bar fuel pressure and 18psi boost

standard fuel pressure is 3bar on 150 and 180bhp engines and 4bar on the 225bhp engines
but anything higher than 4bar will put a lot of pressure on the standard fuel pump and injectors and may lead to them failing
