hey guys,

i just got a walbro 255 for my boosted hatch. But, i was wondering whether it's necessary to get the installation kit or if i could just use all of the stock 'stuff' to install the damn thing.

thanx!

Stephanie

 

bump for an answer

 

for my EF u needed the kit because the actual pump body was smaller than stock so bushings needed to be thicker, and it has a new pick-up filter

 

hmmm... hope that answers your question... anyone have an answer for a dc2?

 

The 'kit' was not necessary for my EH2...I reused all the stock pieces...only spent $80 on my Walbro 255 HP.

i heard the hp is actually bad if you don't need it... do you need it?

 

His sig says turbo b18, so yes I would imagine that he needs it. I wouldn't trust the stock one over 5psi...

 

I have the Walboro 255 high pressure. Dropped right in. No problems with it all motor, nitroused or turboed

 

get the kit it should come with the pump anyway? Can you buy the kits separately I just got sent the wrong one.

 

yeah and when you put it in beat the **** out of that wall inside the gas tank, it's a bitch! damn thing was hard as hell to get in otherwise.

 

oh and maybe that's just in my 92-95 coupe, don't know why honda didn't just have the fuel pump drop str8 down in on my gas tank.

 

I just installed one on my 2000 Si went right in no problem in all of 10 mins no extra parts needed.

The one for my coupe dropped right in...

 

sohc_mshue a.k.a. "the turbo guru" told me the stock fuel pump would work with my setup, but it would be better to get a walbro 255. I asked him if it would make me run lean on 10 p.s.i, with hondata and dsm 450's, but he hasn't answered me back yet . Anyone have any info on this?

the guy i'm having tune my turbo setup said with dsm 450s on around 10 psi or more it wouldn't hurt to upgrade to the walbro 255. considering they're not too pricey anyways.
