Default fuel pump?

I'm new to turbo's and I recently bought one, but I need an FMU which I will be buying soon. Anyway, the guy a bought it from said I needed a 190lph fuel pump, so my question is do I actually need a fuel pump? I'm currently running a stock d16 and the turbo is a Garret T3. Thanks for any info.

bigger fuel pump is always safer, the need for one depends on how much power you plan on making.

its easier to upgrade and you'll have it for any future plans you may have.

They are like $100 so its no biggie.

So, should I get a 190lph? if not which size do you prefer? I plan on keeping it at around 6 psi until I can get a built engine put in to it.

Fuel Management is the most important thing when it comes to turboing your motor and fuel pumps aren't that expensive either can get a walbro 255 on ebay for $90
