My thoughts were that Derv was doing a lot of research to make the pump work as it should which makes me thing that not just any shop, even one that does "stock" rebuild, could adjust these and get the settings correct.From what I understand, the 6mm elements in the M pump was pretty simple. It could be that 7.5mm elements would take more R&D to get dialed in, but 6.0mm was no problem. However, I was pretty specific on what I requested them to do; if you just handed a shop a pump with elements the results would likely depend on how sharp the tech is.

It would likely be more expensive, but could have a good end result. I'm not sure if anyone is willing to spring for the ~$2k (USD) needed to find out though. I'd probably do it if I had the $$$, but I don't at the moment. Besides, I've gotta get more airflow before I can even think about upping the fueling...
