318s have one under the rear seat.

If I were you I'd upgrade to the walbro 255 for ~100 bucks on ebay.

I need one too :( budget college students ftl

[grantlacey11]

whats so much better about the "walbro 255"?

[Danny]

Flows more fuel and is cheaper than stock.

hmmm intruiging. can you hook it up with a link? how hard is it to install compared to an OEM one? or is it like the same fitting?

[Danny]

Requires a bit of modding, but not much.

[Danny]

I don't rightly know sir.

[grantlacey11]

hmm so you dont have one on your car? i mean...if they say its for an e30 318,,,,it shouldnt take that much....right?! haha

[Danny]

A lot of the m5x/s5x guys run this.

I'm going to as well soon.

sounds promising. i might have to pursue. ill let you know if the budget allows.

[rafiki]

We need to figure out how much modification is needed for that pump!!

[grantlacey11]

well i mean, if they say its for en e30....even though its a universal part kind of,,,it shouldnt take too much...i think i might spring for it when i get my paycheck.
