Default 94 civic, b18b1 turbo, walbro pump, rewire?

I plan on hittihg around 250-300whp with 10lbs (t04e 60 trim) I am about to install the walbro pump, do I really need to rewire it? How do I check for voltage etc, what kind of voltage do I need? My car currently doesnt have the injectors or downpipe installed, I plan on doing that today, so I don't want to start the car.

I read a post where a buy installed a walbro and ran his civic to 400whp without rewiring it. I did buy 12 gauge wire, I did buy a 12v 4 prong 30 amp relay. I have the stuff to rewire it, but I keep asking myself is it necessary. I eventually want to build a block, and up the boost, so I know yall will say rewire it, but will I be okay on stock wiring until I up the boost? If I had someone explain how to install this goddamn relay I would do it no problem. I don't know which wires to tap etc.

Any help works. I read threads where it shows what wires go where, but I don't want to wire this **** incorrectly.

Thanks for any replies

****, anyone else wanna chime in? I really hope so cause for some awkward reasons I'm dreading the rewire, meh. I know how to do it, but just paranoid about wiring it and hiding the relay.

just replace the pump that's in your gas tank currently. I had a 250whp civic with a single cam and just swapped a walbro in it and done. I am currently going for 400+ without rewiring my fuel pump. to be honestly never really heard of rewiring a pump just for a 255 walbro
