HFP-342 Performance 255 LPH Fuel Pump with Installation Kit

Did'nt not fit my car like describe. Had to buy a other one.

I wanted to take some time to give my thanks to HFP Fuel Systems for manufacturing a great product while providing great communication and customer service. I purchased a fuel pump for my '97 Nissan Maxima last year that HFP helped with an installation issue I was having with the strainer. HFP immediately sent a couple of alternative strainers in which actually both happened to fit my application perfectly. I was even more amazed by the bump in power I felt with the new pump. I know that a simple pump would not be the first place to try and find power but I'm eager to test out my theory that this pump is responsible for the gains I'm feeling and will likely try another vehicle to install one in. So far I can attest that HFP delivered on the performance part of their description with the immediate, strong and constant throttle response that I had never felt before. For those Nissan VQ30DE fans this practically negated the lag in power around the 3-4000 RPM range I had unfortunately grown accustomed to. . .Granted it was not an OEM fit but the supplied sleeves made it fit more secure than what came from the factory with added benefits of vibration dampening with the rubber sleeve and some custom trimming. As the description indicates I would have saved time if I had sent a picture of my strainer so it's probably best to communicate your set up for them to help match your system better.As a budding entrepreneur I'm eager to get into the automotive industry and am glad I found HFP this early in my business' life and look forward to them providing a quality product for years to come and will be happy to post yearly updates.

Lessons learned, this comes with its own plug and needs said plug to work...ever. There was a few reviews that touched on this not working and I was nearly one of them except when I looked at the box more carefully I found a plug. I put the plug into the pump and Click, OHHHHH! The blue wire is + and the the black is - on an XB1. I did do the modification to the pump casing and the plastic housing to make it all clamp back together. I did not have a Dremel but got very creative with a needle nose pliers and a razor blade. Just make sure to leave enough of the pump and clamps to actually work. I put it together and took it apart about four times. It is about a third faster over my stock pump and makes a WHIRR sound like a coffee grinder I tend to only notice as I'm shutting off the motor. Its rated at 14.4v on a bench not sloshing around in a tank. I did have to upgrade my ground after the install. I was replacing a few things in the process anyways. I read this pump would work well enough when paired with larger injectors and a remapped ecu. I'd buy it again. Not bad for the price.

It worked and it runs now. I pulled out the fuel pump assembly and removed the electric fuel pump off of the assembly and soldered on this one to the factory harness. Zip Tied the wire to the assembly and reinstalled on 8/4/2021. I've taken it on the highway and no issues so far. Although i had some trouble attaching the fuel pump filter sock. It has a weird retaining clip and it would of been so much more simple to just use a bolt to hold it into place. I trimmed the edges of the plastic piece so i could slide the retainer clip onto the plastic nub. I tried many time to do it without trimming but it didn't work. Hopefully that stays in place as it is a key part to keeping the pump running smoothly. I should of just used epoxy instead of the retainer clip in all honesty. Overall it seems to work fine.

This was junk out of box. Second one
