Process West Double W460 Pump Anti-Surge Fuel System Subaru WRX / STI 2008-2014
Product Fitment:
2008-2014 Subaru WRX
2008-2014 Subaru STI
A fully engineered fuel delivery upgrade designed to eliminate fuel starvation under high load while remaining clean, compact, and OEM-like in appearance.
Key Features
- 2.4L surge vessel capacity for stable fuel supply under sustained cornering, acceleration, and track use
- Internally mounted Walbro 460 LPH pump (single pump configuration)
- Near-zero pump noise thanks to external billet surge vessel isolation
- Built-in check valve (Walbro pump) for improved fuel control and system stability
- Complete plug-and-play wiring harness included for simplified installation
- Hidden installation design — fully concealed when viewed from the engine bay
- Upgradeable architecture — can be converted to twin pump system if fuel demand increases
System Design Overview
This system replaces the limitations of in-tank fuel pickup designs with an externally mounted anti-surge reservoir constructed from 6061 billet aluminium.
The surge tank is positioned above the transmission cross member, allowing:
- Consistent fuel pickup under high lateral G-loads
- Reduced risk of fuel starvation during track driving or aggressive street use
- Stable fuel pressure delivery even at low tank levels
Unlike in-tank “surge-style” solutions, this setup physically separates surge management from the main tank, improving reliability in sustained high-performance conditions.
Fueling Capability
The single Walbro 460 configuration is designed to support high-output builds while maintaining simplicity:
- Supports approximately up to ~550 kW at the wheels (petrol applications) depending on supporting modifications and tuning
- Ideal for most street and fast-road Subaru WRX/STI builds
- Designed for compatibility with modern fuels and tuning strategies
Installation & Configuration Notes
- Supplied as a complete single-pump system (including lines and wiring harness)
- Only minimal electrical work required (basic harness integration)
- Designed to remain out of sight in the engine bay for a clean OEM+ appearance
System Upgrade Path
This platform is engineered for scalability:
-
Single pump system (this version):
Simplified installation, supports the majority of performance builds -
Twin pump upgrade option:
For higher fuel demand applications (typically above ~550 kW), system can be expanded to dual Walbro 460 pumps with external fuel pressure regulation and -6 AN plumbing requirements
