why walbro?

[tfhorst]

So why walbro? It comes up everytime I am look for a cheap fuel pump, the reviews say good things then they are quicky followed by how loud they are. I looked at the stats and there good.

Has anyone tried high flow fuel? Better stats and price and no buzzing is what there claiming

In the order of quality, not price.

Bosch 044 > Areomotive 341 > Walbro

This is just my opinion, others feel differently.

Get an MK4 pump if you don't want the noise. To me, my walbro isn't that loud. I can hear it outside the car better than I can hear it inside.

+1, my (2) in-tank walbros aren't that loud at all.

I have a Walbro, haven't installed it.

I think the reason is that it's an easy install in the A7 chassis. The Mk4 pump is even easier, and is a better pump, but is more expensive. I got the Walbro, because at the time I got it, it seemed to be the tried and true solution. Not sure if I'll ever install it, or if I'll just get a Mk4 Denso pump.

They probably are just china made knockoffs of a stock MKIV pump, because a company with 2 employees probably isn't making their own pumps. Maybe they aren't junk, but your guess is as good as mine.

I think the reason people use Walbro is because they're been around forever and never had any quality problems worth mentioning.
