of course. My blue turboe coupe had a external pump and the sr5 tank. Where the pick up hose is in the tank place an inline filter then the pump runing up to the fuel rail. From the return on the fuel rail just hook into the return to the tank. MAKE I repeat MAKE sure what ever pump you get can pick up fuel. There are some high PSI pumps that can not suck and need a low press high vol. pump to supply fuel to it and then can make the pressuer needed.

Ok kool
Cuz it's hard to find a gts corolla around here
I found 1 and it's not worth using
Kinda figured it would be a bit easier to run a external fuel pump
Until I can get my whole new fuel cell system ordered
Any recommendations on a fuel pump??

bosch in line fuel pump for some mercedes-benz models with appropriate flow and pressure. won't be exact (most likely slightly higher) but it'll be good.
