Description
Introducing the Spool Performance FX-200, an advanced high-pressure fuel pump upgrade designed to enhance the performance of your AMG GT, GTS, GTC, or GTR with the M178 engine. The FX-200 significantly improves fuel flow and pressure, making it an essential upgrade for high-performance tuning.
Key Features
-
Enhanced Flow and Pressure: The FX-200 features a larger bore size compared to the stock pump, resulting in approximately 80% more fuel flow. This increased flow supports higher ethanol concentrations and larger turbos, allowing for more aggressive tuning and performance improvements. The pump can operate at pressures up to 250 bar, which increases fuel injector output and reduces injection time.
-
E85 Compatibility: Fully compatible with E85, the FX-200 supports a range of ethanol blends without compromising performance.
-
Plug-and-Play Installation: The FX-200 kit is designed for easy installation with no cutting or splicing required.
Why You Need It
The stock high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP) on the M177 engines is limited in its ability to handle increased tuning and performance demands. The FX-200 provides 80% more flow, which helps overcome these limitations, allowing for bigger turbos and higher ethanol blends, thus expanding the tuning potential of your vehicle.

Are Tune Changes Required?
Yes, calibration changes are required for the FX-200 pumps. It is crucial to apply these changes before starting the car to avoid potential damage and warranty voiding. Spool Performance can provide calibration details to your existing tuner or connect you with experienced tuners. Custom tuning is necessary for achieving the best performance with the FX-200 setup, based on your specific vehicle and conditions.
Low Pressure Fuel Pump Upgrade
Proper low-pressure fueling is vital for the durability and proper function of high-pressure pumps and injectors. Inadequate low-pressure fueling can lead to damage and warranty issues. Ensure your fuel system build includes appropriate low-pressure upgrades to prevent potential problems.
