hey guys,
I bought a turbo kit from a member on this forum a while back and finally decided to unrap the pieces. When I did, I found that the pump on the rising rate fuel pump was not connected to the fmu part. It seems that it was cracked off. I was wondering if there's a way to still use or fix it? Here's what I'm talking about....

A machine shop could probably make u the part. Of if you can contact DD he might be able to get you another part...

The white piece itself is thick plastic so idk what to do.

Again, if you can pull it out a machine shop may be able to make a metal replacement. don't know how that would affect things though.

priceless for people with SF turbo system, but don't worth much to others.

I would upgrade to all that, but it seems kind of a lot for 4 psi. You think just an emange would work?

I feel kind of sad, my friend...
I sent you everything in functional conditions, and I was routing and wishing that your white baby went turbo in no time...
Like the guys before me said, take it to a machine shop, or contact Mike Stafford.
If there's anything I can do to help you, let me know...

unfortunately it would be hard to contact Mike Stafford because of amout of people who got fvcked over, you would have to go to the shop to get something done.

is that the fuel pump with the white piece broken off. do you have any more pics of it. is it an inline pump if so you could probably pick up a relatively cheap replacement pump at like summit racing. but i cant really tell from those pics..(if its the fmu same still applies

Yes that is an inline pump with a plastic fitting on it.

The problem is I think Stafford ordered a bunch of them custom made, but you could probably make something work with a different inline pump.
