[@joef4030]

Best video out, straight to the install without added BS. Thx man

[@drivennw2416]

joe f I gotchu bruhh

[@shad3128]

Same setup i just switched to. Used your video for help. Really appreciate it man, thank you for this

[@MSSP365]

Good how to video- I have done it twice on my 08 GSR. I use aluminum food tray when disassembling the housing. Also try using vise grips for pinch hose clamps. Great videos started following.

[@drivennw2416]

Sowmya Deenadayal Good tips/ ideas I'll give em a shot next time. What fuel pump did you go with?

[@MSSP365]

factory one died at 25K miles, then installed Walbro 255 prior to protune ,in less than a year the walbro died- claimed warranty and got a new walbro 255. Been good since- currently 50K miles

[@drivennw2416]

Sowmya Deenadayal Yeah my walbro 255 died on me after a year or so. Then I decided to try an AEM 320 so far so good!

[@JxedonVlogs]

Hey man idk if you’ll see this but I just installed it and it’s not priming I don’t think, I used the oem plug as well everything’s hooked up so you know what it could be why it’s not priming?

[@Gillyfesh7]

good stuff man! im about to install my walbro 255.

[@drivennw2416]

Gilbrim Olipas Hell Yeah! good pump too. hope my install helps

[@DavidPerez-dh8xx]

Where can I get the walbro 255 with the evo kit?

[@Thatonechingadera45]

David Perez I know I’m late but map

[@justicemccall4493]

Does this pumps wiring harness plug into the factory harness

[@frshmedia]

Good shit my Guy. Installing mine in a bit.

[@Mr_George340]

No venturi gap needed?

[@DougTheMan376]

i know this was a long time ago but did you have an issue with the house on top of the housing with the clips coming off?

[@zSuRvIvoRz]

Is the return line the hose with the green clip on it or the other one?

[@drivennw2416]

evo meekz the feed is the green tab line. 😊

[@winettemotorsports96]

Great video bro it really helped

[@drivennw2416]

sherwin pacquette glad I could help!!!

[@SantiagoHernandez-sn9yl]

Hey quick question. What relays you changed? ( is it the Throttle Actuator Relay, Fuel pump Relay, and the MFI Relay?) am i missing one? and from what website did you order them. if its ok to know. thanks!

[@drivennw2416]

BayArea Evo injectors,starter,MFI, and throttle relays! and I used Maperfomance

[@SantiagoHernandez-sn9yl]

Cool thanks for the help!

[@drivennw2416]

BayArea Evo Anytime bro!

[@joshpena2744]

Did you have to use the wires that comes with the fuel pump? I'm about to do mine and don't know if you have to??

[@drivennw2416]

You don't have to. I pulled the stock wiring harness off the old pump and used that. It plugs right in at the top.

[@joshpena2744]

Ok cool so I don't have splice any wires or anything

[@drivennw2416]

Josh Pena nope! That’s only if you want to run a bigger gauge wires to a relay to get more power to the pump to flow more. Not necessary if you don’t make huge power

[@joshpena2744]

Awesome thanks alot!!! Awesome video as well... Will be using this in reference to do mine thanks again

[@drivennw2416]

Josh Pena anytime my dude! I need to start making vids again...

[@soulcrunch2000]

Good video. Thanks.

[@Evoxyoutube]

Why is it that people who do install videos never follow through on last step? You dont show what is needed after the pump installed. Priming etc.

[@drivennw2416]

EVO X CHANNEL you don’t have to prime the pump. As soon a turn the key to the on position it primes the pump...

[@Evoxyoutube]

On mine I had to prime it few times. And tuners also said priming is needed.

[@Evoxyoutube]

@@drivennw2416 nice video installing

[@drivennw2416]

EVO X CHANNEL I mean I guess you can cycle the key to make it seem like your priming the pump more 🤷‍♂️. Thanks for the comment tho! I no longer have any more evos haha I moved on to way different cars

[@Evoxyoutube]

@@drivennw2416 why no more evo?

[@cristianb3864]

Hey I have an evo x with just bolt ons. I took it to get tuned yesterday and my tuner told me the car was running lean. He said I need a 320 aem fuel pump.. you think it's running lean because it needs the relays or the fuel pump?

[@drivennw2416]

Cristian Barajas It could honestly be both. the Panasonic stock fuel relays can't keep up with the fuel demand. I'd check and see if you have the stock fuel relays. if you do definitely order up the "relay kit" from Maperfomance. Your pump definitely should be able to flow that much power if your on pump gas with full bolt ons. I'd honestly buy an AEM 320 pump tho for future plans on your evo x.

[@cristianb3864]

Yes I checked I do have the stock relays... I'm not planning for more power it's my daily. Thanks for the fast response

[@drivennw2416]

Cristian Barajas No problem. Definitely get rid of those asap.

[@cristianb3864]

I already order them.. thanks hopefully it can get tune this time.

[@Evoxyoutube]

Can you post a link to the relay please

[@itchigocambodian92]

Should've done it with half a tank of gas or lower lol. Also why dont you go with Walbro 450?

[@drivennw2416]

itchigocambodian92 Yeah I could've done it with lower gas, I've done it a few time before so I was confident on how little of gas I was going to spill. I went with the 320 because I didn't have good luck with the 255 so I decided to give AEM a shot. I'm also planning on going Radium Surge tank in a couple months which I'll add another 320. so fuel is covered!

[@itchigocambodian92]

So what are you making on EFR8473 kit? Is it on pump or E85?

[@drivennw2416]

itchigocambodian92 Currently on pump gas roughly making around 600 whp but plans of going e85 and making 700whp

[@itchigocambodian92]

stock bock, stock head, stock cams?

[@drivennw2416]

itchigocambodian92 built motor forged everything. 2.0l with cp pistons Manley turbo tuff rods, apr bolts through the whole motor acl bearings. Stock head with billet gsc s2 and beehive springs and retainers.
