right, a while ago i've ordered a fuelpump and they delivered the wrong one (was posted onhere before)
I asked for a standard cosworth 2wd one and they delivered me a standard ERST one
so, my car is running on standard bhp and standard boost so can i use the ERST one instead off ordering another one??

cheers

Pump creates in excess of 10bar if locked down but the reg obviously sees to it that this isnt the case.

As for fuel flow, the RST pump will cope with around 250bhp so you should be just fine.
