I think that someone her onec told me that all turbo subarus, that use ej series motors, use the same fuel pump, Even the STI. I know that the WRX and the STI (no matter what model year) use the same pump, but I'm not too sure about the legacy turbo. Do not use an N/A pump, it will be wrong, but let me check some part numbers and I'll be able to tell you.

yeah, do not use an N/A pump. But i'm sure any turbo pump will work.

You're sure that your getting fuel into the cylinders? Which pump did you use?

Make sure you have your feed/return lines correct. I made that mistake when i changed out a motor.
As for the pumps the T-leg pump actually flows more then the STI or WRX pump, and they are both different. Just get a walbro and be done with it.
