Best price for fuel pump?

What's up everyone I been tracking down this problem with my car and have determined the problem to be the fuel pump. So does anyone know anyplace that has them on sale or the best place to pick one up is?

purems has it for 170, but you can get a walbro 255lph from boostfactory for cheaper than that

if the intank is shot, an inline isnt going to help.

they have intank walbro pumps, or will those not fit?

I know they dont work well in the transverse due to pick up problems, not sure if its the same problem with the longitudes.

Plenty of A4 owners have been using Walbro fuel pumps installed in the tank for many years. The walbro is a little smaller then the stock so it needs a spacer to go around it so it sits snug. Problem is the walbro is going to flow more fuel so the car is going to run a bit richer since the fuel pressure is going to be slightly higher, this has been documented both a few people which had fuel gauges installed at the fuel rail.
 
 
new2me - are you sure its the fuel pump? Does the car start at all or what are the issues you are having?

You guys suck.  The best we can do is a 225TT intank and 044 Bosch pump.  If we use a walbro intake, we cant run below 1/4 tank.

But Mike, the fuel pressure shouldnt change on a B5 since it has the fpr.

Your right it "shouldn't" but odd thing is that a few people that did swap in a walbro in place of their stock pump did see their fuel pressure bump up slightly. Most people don't no that it happens because most of them don't have a fuel pressure gauge installed into their car.
 
I think it just has to do with the fact that the walbro moves more fuel which kind overwhelms the FPR causing the pressure to be slightly higher.
 

Well the reason I have decided that my pump has taken a turn for the worst is the sound for one. I have replaced the primary O2, MAF, Plugs, Coolant temp sensor, Seafoamed & replaced vac lines. My car is still running lean and now will hardly crawl away from the driveway.
 
Oh and I replaced the suction pump that Audi has "redesigned" because it failes in cold weather.   

Have you replaced the fuel filter yet?

Easier then replacing the fuel pump

lol no the filter has been sitting in the trunk for months. The pump makes a really loud whine and when it sputtters, 1 sec. later the car sputters. I have noticed that when the tank is on 1/4 it runs better but as soon as I fill it up all hell breaks loose again.
 
 

I would change the filter first and if the problem is still there change the pump. Just not smart to keep an old filter in the car when putting in a new pump.
