Fuel pump for B10 biturbo

[Stirling]

So is this an Alpina-specific part, or will a BMW 535i piece work here?

[testdriver]

the original pump ALPINA uses (made by BOSCH) is not available anymore.
don't go with the regular 535i (not even M5) pump though, it doesn't have
enough pressure/flow and could cause engine/cat damage if you push the car.
if you want to stick with BOSCH, you might be good with a 044 motorsport one.

Thanks testdriver, its arriving tomorrow from Quebec.

[testdriver]

did you order the BOSCH 044? how much did it set you back?

[Stirling]

I did. Nearly $300 from WorldPac. It is available for less through Amazon.com(!) but I was looking for speedy delivery.

[testdriver]

that's not too bad. i wouldn't even be able to get you a much better deal on a
new pump straight from germany. i'm sure your bi-turbo will be happy about it!

ps. how about a write up on the installation? :D keep us posted!
