Hi everyone! Well, the inevitable just happened! My stock fuel pump went on me today. I know I have choices to replace it, but that depends on the fuel economy. With my 88 LHP stock pump, I was getting about 15-16 mpg on the road.
Based on all of your experience, what would be the impact on fuel economy given what I have on the car (see my signature) if I have get any of the following as replacements?
1. 110 LHP
2. 155 LHP
3. 200 LHP
Is it worth it, or should I stay with the stock 88 LHP replacement. I do regular driving and and ocassional tire spinning down the blvd. here and then.
Thanks!
