    I have read and seen multiple posts about replacing the hpfp internals. With the opportunity to get this done coming up I am looking at my opinions.

    The 2 I keep seeing is corksport and autotech, they are both in the US and I'm sure they are quality parts, just wondering if there are any other options out there for us across the pond? (UK)

    Also, I got a very slim window coming up, I have relatives coming over from the USA in the next week, what are postal times like for corksport and autotech for delivery within the USA? I would be saving about 30% on the cost if they can deliver quickly as I wouldn't have e to pay pesky import tax and conversion rate is the best it's been for a while

    you can get autotechs in the UK for around 400 pounds, Audi's use the some one so it's pretty common
    I'm not tracking any other manufacturers.

    personally I went with auto tech over Corksport, plenty here that made the same choice and vice versa. I know edge Autosport to ship quickly and damond motorsports, really picking a vendor on the same coast/ half of the country well expedite shipping.

    not in USA myself but traveling within a few states I have found shipping estimates to be realistic once shipped naturally delays can happen.

    relative's live in USA? ask them which postal service delivers best in their area and pick that as a shipping option if you can in checkout. if they're in a hotel it's pretty easy to ship it to the hotel with their name on it even without a room number ahead of time hotel just needs a heads up

    My parents immigrated over there 14 years ago, currently living in Florida and coming to visit on just over a week.

    With free delivery and no import either of them will be around £260

    Seriously ask your parents what delivers fast to them. For me ups is fast and FedEx likes to let shit sit in their Warehouse for a week

    UK has CorkSport distribution. I had autotechs until they seized. CorkSport has been spotless.

    Got the part today, there's a warning on the box for a tsb for Audi/VW for the cam shaft, nothing about the Mazdaspeed platform, anything else to know about this, also I did read about potentially replacing the seals inside?

    The pump is the same as the one used on some vag products which is why that note is on the box
