Default should I sump the tank?

Been reading some old threads but can't really come up with something that would work for me. I am about to start a new build for my da9 integra and I am looking for 550+hp with room to grow in the future. I currently have fic 2150cc injectors and a walboro 255 on stock fuel lines. I was running precision 1000cc injectors but ran out of injector on e85. Should I sump the tank and run dual 044s or should I keep the 255 and run a 044 between stock lines and fuel rail. Or what are my other options. Id like to keep cost down but willing to spend the money if need be.

You could always run a single big in tank pump like the walbro 450, they're only like 180. Just make sure you have a relay and big power wire for it

Or use your Walbro in the tank and run a Bosch 044 inline.

You can also run the Full Blown Motorsports hanger and run dual wally's, this is what I'm using.

Would a single 450 support my power goals? If I run a 044 online would I need to replace all the fuel lines?

Ive set up a few of them...

All your replacing is the stock rubber line going from the OEM filter to the rail with an inline pump.

You can do it with a fcsrace fuel cell.

If you can do the work yourself then sumping the stock tank is the way to go . . . just make sure to clean it out and check your welds obviously.

I think the "room to grow" is key here . . . nothing like having a sumped tank and a large pipe thread so you can throw a -8 or -10 on there.

Walbro 450 is the way to go if you want a cheap option. They are on ebay for 140. Legit. Just wire it per the instructions and a minimum 12 ga wire

I wouldn't buy one off eBay personally... Too many fakes out there. However they're still around 200 for the pump, probably the cheapest option

My setup consists of walbro 400, Deachwerk 1300cc injectors and -8 fuel line. I made over 600 HP and I still have plenty of fuel to go. I ran a banjo with a -6 end and an adaptor from -6 to -8. ran a -8 line to my inline filter then to my rail. Wala not too bad.
