Description
Elevate your high-performance driving experience with the Spool Performance FX-350 High Pressure Pump Kit, designed specifically for the AMG GT63 M177. Building upon the success of the FX-200, the FX-350 sets a new standard with enhanced pressure and flow capabilities, making it the ultimate choice for tuning and maximizing engine output.
What is the FX-350?
The Spool Performance FX-350 is an advanced high-pressure fuel pump engineered to deliver superior performance and efficiency. This pump surpasses its predecessor, the FX-200, by offering increased fuel pressure and flow.
- Enhanced Pressure and Flow: Operating at an impressive 35Mpa, the FX-350 delivers significantly higher pressure than the FX-200’s 25Mpa. According to the equation Q=PxA (where Q is flow rate, P is pressure, and A is the area of the injector nozzles), this increased pressure results in a higher flow rate through the injectors. This means the FX-350 allows your injectors to flow 40% more fuel before reaching their maximum limits.
- Improved Fuel Atomization: The higher pressure from the FX-350 enhances fuel atomization, leading to finer fuel droplets in direct-injected engines. This results in more efficient combustion, increased power output, better fuel economy, and reduced emissions.
Why Do You Need It?
The stock high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP) on the M177 motors has limited capacity, which can be a bottleneck when tuning for higher performance. The FX-350 adds 90% more flow capacity, raising the fueling limits and enabling the use of larger turbos or higher ethanol concentration blends.

Are Tune Changes Required?
Yes, calibration changes are necessary when installing the upgraded pumps. Ensure these changes are made before starting the car to avoid damage and voiding the warranty. Spool Performance provides calibration details to your existing tuner or can help connect you with experienced tuners. Custom tuning is required for optimal performance based on your specific setup and conditions. Spool Performance does not provide custom tunes but can assist with tuner-related queries.
Low Pressure Fuel Pump Upgrade
Proper low-pressure fueling is crucial for the durability and performance of high-pressure pumps and injectors in a direct injection system. Insufficient low-pressure fueling can cause damage to the pump piston and bore, potentially leading to voided warranties. Ensure your fuel system build includes appropriate low-pressure upgrades as needed.
