Description

The E46's fuel pump was sized for a stock inline six twenty-five years ago; swaps and turbos disagree.

The Radium Engineering Fuel Pump Install Kit for the BMW 3 Series upgrades the in-tank pump on the 1999-2005 E46 (excluding M3): the hardware to install a modern high performance fuel pump in the factory hanger location, with the mounting, adapter, and electrical components the conversion needs. An economical delivery upgrade for boosted M52/M54 builds and the swap projects the chassis attracts. Pump sold separately.

What You'll Feel

  • Fuel delivery headroom for turbo kits, superchargers, and swap builds on the E46 platform
  • A modern pump installed cleanly in the factory location, no improvised brackets
  • The stock tank and hanger architecture retained, keeping the car serviceable

Features

  • Installs a high performance aftermarket pump in the factory hanger
  • Mounting, adapter, and electrical components included

The Details

Radium's install kits exist because dropping an aftermarket pump into an OEM hanger is never quite the direct fit the pump box implies: inlet heights, outlet interfaces, and electrical connections all differ from the factory unit, and this kit resolves them for the E46's specific hanger. Select a pump matched to the horsepower target and fuel type, wire it properly with a Radium DIY wiring kit if current demand exceeds the factory circuit, and the platform's low-pressure side stops being the ceiling. The M3 exclusion is absolute, since the S54 car's fuel system differs; non-M 323i, 325i, 328i, and 330i variants are the intended homes.
