Walbro 255lph, 450cc, SMC, Running RICH
Can someone explain why this fuel pump is being used in low boost honda applications? I have read several posts with people having problems with SMC and 450cc injectors. This pump is over kill for people running under 12psi. I willing to bet that most people here running SMC and 450cc injectors that are complaining about running rich are running stock FPRs. A stock GSR fuel pump is more than enough for under 15psi on 450 injectors. Everyone running SMC should install stock GSR Pumps or buy the Walbro 190lph and not complain about the SMC not working. SMC is great if people would learn how to maintain linear fuel pressures. Fuel pressures on SMC setups should not exceed base pressure+amount boost.

Okay, thanks for the lecture! 
EDIT: and yeah, I probably could've gone with a lower pump on my turbo Y8 but whatever. . . .
