fuel pump hick ups

RE: fuel pump hick ups
My roomate Mishri, who has an 07, swears it does the same thing to him sometimes. In his case even in town after not being on the highway. Crazy. The TSB applies to 05-06 so yeah I guess it was supposed to have been fixed already... Hmm.

***** ... if you dont want to buy the GT500 pumps (they are expensive I know) ... then go with the VORTECH pump and KB Boost a pump. That combination will cost you less and that setup will run just fine

I'm an '07 and I've had that happen too. Cruisin' at 60 MPH, drop to third, nail it... and wait. That's happened about 3 times. Then once off the line from a dead stop... tached to about 2500, dumped the clutch and... wait. Weird thing is I never get it to reproduce it when I WANT it to.
Guess I'll have to look into the TSB.

I think I'm going to take mine in. It pretty much matches the TSB description exactly. I'm not in a big hurry so I'll probably print it out and have the work done next time I go in for something else.

What bothers me about this is I don't want someone driving my car for an hour trying to replicate the problem. You have to drive mine at the same speed on the freeway for at least 20 minutes before it does it, and even then not all the time.
Do some dealerships just replace it if you give them a copy of the TSB and explain it?
Thanks.

Yes, the VORTECH is an intake pump. I couldn't run a BAP with the stock pump ... just doesn't push enough fuel... not for my setup anyway.

thanx,ive been talking to a guy on the turbo forums who works for a shop,says they use (2) 03/04 cobra pumps,he has a set for $150. i might see how that goes.honestly i think i would be fine with the stock pump and the KB BAP if it wernt for the hickups i get.I may take it in and get them to fix it,then see how it goes and get the BAP.

So if your fuel pump breaks and you have FI then what happens? Because fuel pumps do break. Seems like you have a ticking time bomb at that point then
