walbro fuel pump on VE?
what are my choices for aftermarket fuel pumps for my VE? as some of you know i've been having stumbling/hesitation problems with my max so today if i can find instructions, i'm going to remove the throttle body, then if i have time tomorrow or tuesday i'll order a fuel filter and get some spark plugs, if that doesnt help, i'm replacing the fuel pump. also i'm replacing my POS intake with a real warpspeed CAI which, if the stereo being sold goes according to plan i will order on wednesday. if none of this helps, i'm going to wait till i have the money, order/install an ACT street clutch and goto a dealer.
yes, i'm mixing mods with trouble shooting, but my parents are cutting me a deal with my debt to them so its all good.
anyone got directions for removing the throttle body?
thanks

no need to upgrade the ECU for a Walbro 255 pump....as for the VE TB removal and fuel filter change, I'm not sure?!?! 
I've removed my VGs TB before, but the two are totally different...do a search, I'm pretty sure its in the archives somewhere.

soon enough i'll have turbo or SC. maybe NOS, i havent decided. would i need a JWT ECU for the walbro pump only? i'm looking for something better than stock but not outragous....yet.

Personally I'd avoid them.......
though they did show 8hp gain on Speedvion's Camaro Z28 after they made some FPR adjustments, but I'm not sold on them for use on our cars. but $240 per set is a good deal though! but since I know you're looking for performance upgrades for future NOS, turbo or SC...look into what Dmontzmax suggested.....but I know JWT has the JWT 450 kit, it includes a Cobra Mustang "hi-flow" MAF, 550cc injectors and ECU repogramming...now I know its available for the VG30e and VG30et, but not sure of the compatability on a VE??? you can also look into RC Engineering, they do more application specific fuel injector work.....you just send them your injectors and they can "blueprint" a specific flow rate for you--> http://www.rceng.com/service.htm

does the mustang MAF make that much of a difference N/A? how about the rest of the kit?
thanks
