Based on tecomotive's page with the current exchange rate a CWA100-3 with connector kit can be had for about $277 plus shipping, and a CWA150 with connector kit is about $226... that's tempting, I might have to sell my 2x ZL1 pumps and get one of those.

Nice thing about the ZL1 pumps is they're available everywhere though-- dealers, Summit, Jegs, SDPC, etc. The Pierburg pumps do have VAG part numbers though for OEM VW/Audi applications, so they should also be readily available.
I am using a CWA150 pump from Tecomotive. Tobias is very responsive via email in case there are any questions and the pump arrived in less than a week.
