Fuel pump is in the tank, it can be accessed by removing the rear seat and then unbolting a panel on the passenger side to access it.
 
No need to bleed the system when putting a new filter in (in the engine compartment). Just replace it and fire up the car. You should if it's quiet be able to hear the pump buzz when you put the key into the "on" position.

I would contact Turbo XS, I've installed a lot of Turbo XS piggyback chips and they don't usually have this issue.

Cuts out intermitently - Fells like running out of fuel by jimbru

My Impreza (2000) has run sweetly for 3 years but has developed and intermitent problem. Whilst driving at any speed the engine cuts out, it feels as if its run out of petrol. After about 10 minutes it will start again, maybe runs for 2 minutes of 2 days. Has anyone had similar problem and can advise me?

Have you replaced your fuel filter yet? It's the black canister on the left side (looking forward) in the engine bay. Should cost about $20 at a local autoparts store. That would be a good start.

Engine Coolant Temperature light by sea_note
Feb 05, 2008 (3:33 pm)

Hi,
 
I have 2008 Impreza Wagon and when I start the car in the morning, Engine Coolant Temperature light comes on. After driving for 2 minutes light goes away. I brought car to the dealer but they said it is normal. I think it should be off after 1 - 2 seconds like all other lights. What is your opinion? Thanks.

I get the same blue coolant light in my 08 Impreza 2.5i every mornign I start up. And im not even sure if its the coolant, it may simply be the engine's temp is too low.
 
We've had below zero temps here in the Chicago area, and that light comes on everymorning. Even if the engines is off for at least an hour in freezing temps and you start again, the temp drops enough to turn that light back on.
 
I believe it simply lets you know that the temp has not reached its ideal value in order to get the best performance/efficiency/mileage/etc from you engine.
 
Your best bet is to just wait the 2-4 mins it takes to warm up your engine enough to turn the light off.
