[urq] RE: [Es2] fuel pump

[James Howard]

True, Flow rate is the important measure. Pressure is only a measure of the
pumps ability to overcome a restriction. The stock WR (WX) fuel system tops
out at about 240 Bhp, so although the maximum pressure which the WR pump can
deliver is 8 bar, it may not be able to supply the flow rate required by a
high(er) bhp 20V.
Having said all that, it's probably ok bearing in mind the redundancy in the
WR system, a pulsed injection system in the AAN and a similar capacity/bhp
to the WR.
Jim.
