When almost nobody yet has created an equal to the 044 in over 30 years of use.....it seems nigh on impossible for some Chinese company to do it now for only £30

If you have proper safeties in place that protect against a failing pump, then go ahead. Otherwise it seems a bit silly.

I had a pair of AEM inline pumps . I used them for a year but I've now changed to in-tank Walbros instead.
They claimed 380lph when I bought them, although that number seems to have risen since them. Whether the pumps have changed or not, who knows.

I never did test them to see if they did flow any better than the 044's I'd used for many years previous to that, but in all honesty I dont think they really did. Although that's not an empirical test.


AEM/Grams seem to sell the same pump....and there are even sellers on egay with identical looking pumps at a much cheaper price. So wouldnt surprise me if they all have the same origins.

You just never seem to know with pumps these days !!
