A Bosch 044 would flow more. It would also be more expensive, more difficult to setup, and noisier. It would also be overkill for your setup. If you are planning on further mods and going for alot more power, it very well may be worth considering.
Thats the thing, the 044 is cheaper than the Nismo/Tomei pump (its blatently the same model, same with their injectors )
I can get the 044 for about 140 quid and the other 2 for 200-210, so its just a matter of it being worth the hassle involved in fitting one

Car is only used for fun as I have a company car for commuting etc, but I'm planning to do a few trackdays in the next month or so. At the moment its laggy as fcuk (I'm getting 1 bar at about 4500rpm!!) but Rob at PT said it was running quite rich in the midrange with not enough ignition advance so once the injectors pump and cam gears are on a remap should sort it.
It almost feels like a big single the way the come in - floor it in 2nd from 3000 and it slowly gets past 4500 and takes off like a scalded cat!

Was enough to beat a Speed Six the other day though

I'm ideally looking for about 430-450hp at the wheels once its mapped with all the goodies fitted, and the sports cat removed

By the way, should they whistle a little bit as they spin up?
