It flows 36% more than the standard unit and is rated to 200 bar, arriving fully assembled with direct fitment and flow tested in house before it ships, so there is nothing to build up on the bench. On an Audi A3 or S3, or a Mk7 Golf R, the practical gain is a rail that holds its pressure through the whole pull instead of dropping away and forcing the calibration to back off. Nostrum quotes a supported potential of 700 whp on petrol and 540 whp on E85 for a fully built car, which is a ceiling for the fuel system rather than anything the pump does on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGen 3 A3, S3 and Mk7 Golf R cars on an aggressive map that are out of rail pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners committing to full pump E85 rather than dabbling with blends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds that want the fuel side settled before a turbo or intake change\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnyone who would rather fit a finished, flow tested assembly than a piston kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Nostrum Points At Full E85 Rather Than A Blend\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNostrum's own guidance on this pump is to go to full pump E85 rather than sit on an intermediate E30 to E50 mix, which it flags as the problematic middle ground on this engine. It is worth knowing before you plan the build, because the fuel you settle on changes the calibration strategy and how much of the pump's extra capacity you actually use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Nostrum High Performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: high pressure fuel pump (HPFP)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: H136-0568\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicle Application: EA888 Gen 3, Audi A3 and S3, Volkswagen Mk7 Golf R\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlow: 36% more than the factory pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax operating pressure: 200 bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFuel compatibility: ethanol compatible, full pump E85 recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded items: fully assembled HPFP with installation instructions; tuning guides available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery pump flow tested in house\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment And Setup Checks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNostrum publishes this pump for the North American market A3, S3 and Mk7 Golf R, so on a UK or European car the sensible step is to check your existing pump part number and engine code against the application before ordering.
