Hey all, had the car die on me in the middle of the road the other day, almost got run over by a 2ton truck ... lol

Long story short, took it into a 'reputable' auto mechanic, and he says it's $522 to get it replaced, and it seems a bit too high.

I know there are aftermarket Bosche or Denso fuel pumps that range in the $150-$280 price, and I have a friend that is a mechanic who says he can install it for me since it's pretty easy.

Are there any reasons NOT to use aftermarket pumps? or should I just ask the auto mechanic to use the $380 stock one?

Never mind, I got a brand new 255lph walbro for $100. That's a $280 saving from the stock OEM part! Phew... almost got my *** handed to me by the auto technician

I just did a fuel pump for my neighbors IS300, the OEM pump is a denso or bosch unit usually. No reason to pay ridiculous dealer markup for one, just get it from rockauto or somewhere.

Now that you got the Walbro, you can go turbo/FI, lol...
