Personally, I would NEVER use a pump other than a Graf or a Geba. If 
that "(A1") means Cardone, that takes the subject off the table. During 
my 40+ year career as an Audi (as well as other European) car tech and 
shop owner, Cardone products were always at, or very near, the list of 
products I would even consider putting in a customer's car. Names like 
"Tru-Flow" scare me, too. We used to have a major rebuilder (Arrow 
Automotive) here (until they moved to a state with a much lower level of 
pay and employee protection) and I know folks who worked there. They 
wouldn't use the products their own company sold. Just order a good pump 
and anything else you might need for the job from one of the usual 
suspects (GPR is good, as well as Autohausaz).
