So i just installed a walbro 450 in my 2010 335i and it keeps blowing the fuel pump fuse. It can idle and rev but after about 30-45 seconds itll blow and shut off
Walbro 450 keeps popping 20a fuel pump fuse

Is there a question there or were you just telling us?
If you were looking for some advice, I would first ask Where did you get the pump from? Is it Authentic?
Is it wired correctly?
I run a 535 and 450 and never blew a fuse.
I got it from ebay i used the link from a YouTube video. Its the pump ending in 274. I used the install kit that came with it and spliced them with my factory wire/connector
Okay, just and FYI, there are a lot of Walbro clones on the market so I would try and investigate if yours is a true 450. (274 is the 450)
How are your "splices"? Super solid connection or ehh, could have been better?

Not the best, I didn’t solder anything. Just used the supplied connections and put heat shrink over it
I'm thinking that is where you might want to check. And try and see if it is Authentic. Ask the supplier where they got the pump.
The 20amp fuse powers the EKP and the EKP powers the pump.
I would expect a proper functioning EKP to shut down and report and error before it just pulled so much current it blew the fuse.

Thats what i was thinking, i just put a new ekpm3 in and coded it correctly and all that stuff
