I was wondering what kind of fuel pump are people using for the 98 gt's? I had some trouble finding one because all the websites only showed part numbers for the 96-97 and nothing about the 98s. I had a mail order tune and was going to a local dyno to check the air fuel, but the tune was not cutting it so i got a tunned by a friend of mine that works at ford. I dont know too much info, he told me that it was leaning out at 5k rmp. He told me it was the pump that was not handling it. If i remember correct he told me the a/f was at 13.1. Do i have the wrong pump? and if so what kind should i use and where can i get it? What suggestions do u guys have, i would really appreciate the help.

I'm using a vortech pump advertiesed specificly for the 98's, but since I bought mine I've heard you can use any of returnless variable voltage pumps that the 99+ cars use like the aviator, svt focus etc.

the focus pump and a bap should handle that with ease all I've got is a 255 and I havent had any issues. What all is done to your car?

I dont know too much about tunning but wouldnt your car automatically lean out with al the extra airflow? Isnt he supposed to increase the fuel through his tunning? Was he not able to increase the fuel ? It doesnt sound like thats your problem that setup seems more than addequate. But I agree, can we have a more complete list of mods?
