Fuel pump upgrade? Need info!

Where can I get a fuel-pump upgrade for a 2001 maxima?? Will the pump for the 96 turbo ZX work on my car? If anyone has any info would be appreciated!

Need BOOST!!

the guys with a lot of boost run with Walbro 255lph high pressure fuel pumps.....

I think it is made for the Eclipses, but will also fit the max apparantly.....

Pump # FPD006
Says it's for the Eclipse, but it drops right into a Maxima, 255lph, you can't make more power than this pump will support... $118 shipped, I don't think you can find a lower price...

What exactly will a fuel pump upgrade do? How does it affect the performance of the car if it effects the performance at all?

Has any 5th gens tried the new fuel pump yet? I believe The New CLIMAX was looking into this before.

It will deliver more fuel. When you have a lot of boost, you need a proportional amount of fuel to mix with the larger amount of air. Also, you don't want to run too lean with boost, or else your engine will go *boom*

So who are the guinea pigs so far for this fuel pump? Let us know how it worked out and how it supplements the cars performance?!?!?
