Default I need some Fuel Pump advice

I have a 1jz with 440cc injectors. Fuel ecu is bypassed.

I just put in a brand new aeromotive stealth 340 pump in September. Have maybe 1500 miles on it. Last night, I go to the park and when I leave to go home, it wouldn't start. Not getting any fuel pressure, and I'm not hearing the pump turn on. I know the ECU is sending the signal to turn it on because pulled the EFI relay out and put it back in and heard/felt it click. Got towed home, and have yet to check voltage back at the pump, but I think for some reason the pump is shot. I did some research on this pump before buying it, and there were some mixed reviews with some saying exactly what just happened to me, but took a chance anyway.

So please, I need to hear some advice from people on what pump to get. What pump are you running in your boosted SC, how long has it been installed, and are you happy with it?

Thanks!

I am running the AEM 320lph High Flow In-Tank Fuel Pump Aeromotive and the AFPR Kit for 1JZ-GTE
from DriftMotion. Installed in 01-2015 and have about 2500 miles on it no problems. Not the same pumps as yours but close. You will have to remove and test it. Is it still under warranty?
I am running the above mentioned fuel setup on my 1.5JZ with 440cc injectors and GT35 single turbo.

Thanks for the response. I am pretty sure it might still be under warranty, but at this point, I don't know if I want to trust them again and get stranded again. When I was looking at pumps, it was between the AEM 320, and Aeromotive 340. I went with the latter because it had a bit more flow. Guess I made wrong choice..

I have confirmed voltage at the connector, and removed the pump and put it right to battery. Pump is shot.

Are you running stock fuel lines?

Are you using stock wiring, or did you wire thicker gauge wire off of a relay?

Thanks again

I just ordered an AEM 320. Lets see how this one lasts.

I'm going to put this one on a relay off battery voltage with thicker wire
