[s-cars] RS2-related fuel pump questions

[Dave Forgie]

Thanks for the data points, i.e. that the OEM 091 G pump should be fine.
I wonder whether my altitude compensation is working (I am at sea
level).  There has to be a reason I am running a bit lean at WOT!!! 
Merde.

Dave,
 I've never had a problem in my car or the wife's. I think if the fuel
pump 
is getting worn out you may but when that is I don't know. Mine has
149K on it 
no with alot more power than RS2 and my wife's has 169K with full RS2
except 
cam setup.
