Default Advice on aftermarket fuel pump for boost!?

I'm running 96 Turbo DX hatch and just recently my inline fuel pump has failed me (Drag 3 Turbo kit) I think its a cheap pump anyway and its super loud.

I've been hearing alot of good things about the Walbro aftermarket intank fuel pumps and am considering getting one for my setup. Anyone here using one currently or have any more info i could use?

If I go this route I won't need two pumps (stock and inline pumps), ill just need the walbro. And they seem pretty cheap too. :naughty:

Holley makes good pumps too. But I have heard nice things about Walbro. I would use both just to be on the safe side.

And, FYI, BBK is Walbro so you can buy a BBK product and get a Walbro pump (although I don't think BBK makes one for the 6th gens.)

I just bought a Walbro 255 with install kit and shipped for 100 off of Ebay, which is not a bad deal in my opinion.
