Default fuel pump, 190lph or 255lph??

I'm going to be running ~5psi of boost from a jrsc on a 92 civic. Would a 190lph pump be enough fuel? or would a 255 be better?

running stock injectors, stock fuel rail, with b&M fpr and either 5:1 or 10:1 FMU

The 190 will be fine. I'm running it in my Civic at 8psi on a Tdo4h-15g.

Since you're using an FMU, make sure you get the high pressure pump.

stock injectors will require a 12:1 fmu. And I would go with a high out put INLINE pump. the intanke wont produce enough pressure for the FMU to funtion correctly.

i thought the high pressure one was only rated to 80 or 90psi? You defintiely want to run an inline bosch, airtex etc... if that is the case.
