have a 97 prelude that i'm turboing and i wondering if i needed to get a high pressure fuel pump or can i use the stock pump?

 

depends on what your goals are and what your set up will be

 

for the mean time ill only be run about 8 to 10 psi its a basic t3t4 hybrid turbo with intercooler and all down the run i want to pull the engine and completely build it from bottom up.

 

you should be okay with stock for a while, but I would swap the injectors out for higher capacity ones.

I'm currently running a stock pump with 560cc injectors out of an Evo. My tuner told be that I'm approaching the threshold and should upgrade the pump soon if I want more power, but I'm currently running just a tad under 300WHP so its no rush...

 

cool thats good news i really didnt want to buy a new one and then try to rip the old one out. even tho its not that hard its just in a pain in the *** space, under the back seat . yeah i probably be putting out around 340 with the turbo. then i will have to get it tuned

 

If you're thinking of doing over 300whp, then I would consider a fuel pump. They're cheap ($100??) and only takes about an hour avarage to install one. Just get a friend to help up out...its probably about as hard as changing a tire, and as messy as changing the oil or fuel filter.

 

i know they're not hard to change. its just a pain to take the back seat out then try putting it back in. but if i need it then im going to have to do it right? so then what size injectors do you think im going to need?

LOL, we Honda guys actually got it easy with the fuel pump! Alot of other vehicles require you to drop the whole fuel tank from UNDER the car - that crap sucks especially when you got gas in the tank!! If your goal is 300Whp I think some 550cc would be good and personally I think you should get the fuel pump as well. That's what I am currently running on my turbo H22A - 550cc Injectors and the 255Lph Walboro.

 

haha yeah you have a point there.. thanks for the info really helpful!!
