So instead of replacing the fuel pump with another OEM pump that work with ethanol free gas they need change the whole fuel system. It can't be the engine because we are close to the compression and bore&stroke as an S2000 and they didnt have this big of a problem.

Unless I'm completely wrong and talking out of my ass
Well.. Your ass is talking.. The s2000 didn't use DI. It used a direct port injection system. DI uses a special pump for the high FP required on the twins.
