Normally there is no return on electrical parts or components.

CK,

Didn't JDM drop it in without a retune? Anyone using a JDM tune shouldn't require a retune I think.

^^^+1 - I don't know why vortech send that with the kits either. Very strange/stupid. Either way, the GT500 pumps are a different animal. The GT supercar pumps do need tuning as does any dual pump set-up.

JDM are the ones who are using the GT500 pumps and yes the are drop in and go - nothing else needed. They also cost $900 from them and they are the ONLY place to get the kit.

Well good to know I guess. But $900 is steep for a fuel pump setup. The whole damn whipple kit is going to be 5 grand and include a gt500 pump supposidly.

Agreed. $900 is ridiculous for fuel pumps - thus the reason I was giving the warning.
