Default Did you change your fuel pump?

If you've seen my BFC thread, you know everything has been wrong with my swap.

Did you change your fuel pump to the m3 one? Was it a bolt on? Any of you running the regular 318 fuel pump without a hitch?

for those of you in the same position, I just changed the fuel pump to the m3 one, and it did help with the stalling.

Maurolin, when you manage to run 13.1 in 1/4 mile, did you have slicks and cams. How much rwhp do you think you running?

I figured out why my car stalls. PRessure buildup in the gastank. I have an m3 tank on the side. What do I install to relieve pressure, and where is it located?

all fuel tanks are built with vent pipes. it allows the car to heat up without gas pouring out as well as equalizing pressure as the car burns fuel.

i have no clue where it is on the ti, but i imagine it's one of the hoses that runs from the fuel sender. it should be fairly easy to trace.
