Description
The Spool Performance FX-350 Upgraded High-Pressure Fuel Pump System is a high-capacity fueling upgrade engineered specifically for the Audi RS7 Sportback (C8) equipped with the EA825 engine. This system is designed to eliminate the factory high-pressure fuel pump limitation that restricts power output on tuned and ethanol-fueled RS7 platforms.
At the heart of the system are two Spool Performance FX-350 mechanical high-pressure fuel pumps, each featuring an increased internal bore compared to the factory pumps. This design delivers approximately 90% more fuel flow than stock, enabling the engine to safely support higher boost levels, larger turbochargers, and increased ethanol content up to full E85.
The FX-350 operates at fuel pressures of up to 350 bar, significantly improving injector efficiency while reducing injection duration. Higher operating pressure enhances fuel atomization and combustion stability, particularly under high-load and high-RPM conditions. Compared to lower-output pump solutions, the FX-350 provides a substantial increase in usable fuel delivery for demanding performance applications.
This Spool Performance system is fully plug-and-play, requiring no cutting, splicing, or permanent modification to the vehicle. All components are engineered for direct installation and long-term reliability. The FX-350 pumps are fully E85 compatible and built to withstand the demands of aggressive tuning and high-horsepower builds.
The kit includes a Bosch-spec 10-micron high-flow fuel filter, designed to protect the high-pressure fuel pumps and injectors from contaminants without introducing pressure drop in the low-pressure fuel system. An optional Spool Performance Ethanol Content Monitor is available, allowing real-time ethanol percentage and fuel temperature monitoring through a mobile application to support accurate tuning and fuel quality verification.
The Spool Performance FX-350 system is intended for serious performance enthusiasts. Custom ECU calibration is mandatory, and proper low-pressure fuel system support is required to ensure reliability and prevent component damage.

Why Upgrade the High-Pressure Fuel Pump
The factory high-pressure fuel pump on the Audi RS7 becomes a restriction once power output, boost pressure, or ethanol content is increased. The Spool Performance FX-350 removes this limitation by delivering significantly higher fuel volume and pressure, allowing safer and more consistent fueling under extreme performance conditions.
This upgrade is essential for:
- High-horsepower builds
- Larger turbocharger setups
- High ethanol or full E85 fueling
- Reduced injector duty cycle at elevated power levels
Tuning and Fuel System Requirements
- ECU calibration changes are required before operation
- Improper tuning can cause severe engine or fuel system damage
- Low-pressure fuel supply must meet increased demand
- Insufficient low-pressure fueling can damage the high-pressure pumps and void warranties
