The Walbro is a good pump for a cheap price. 25 psi though, I don't know if it can support that much power. I've heard it is good until about 450whp. How much power are you looking for and what setup?

Looking forward to hit over 300 at the wheels in the future, my motor is fulley bulit with a Ferra top end and a bottom end of JE+JG+Crower with a stock crank still I Dont know if i should chnage it but i only have about 1400 miles on this new motor so i spouse that a stock honda crank is good enough to handle this or is it?!
FORGOT ITS A GREEDY TURBO CHARGER SET UP wich i was told from greddy that there turbo got boost about 25 psi !

Ya the Walbro will be good for your setup. The stock crank will be fine at that power as well. What turbo is it?

Ya, good point. I was assuming he would be running a standalone since he has a built motor that will be running at 25psi, but you never know.

Depends on how much power you plan to support, injector sizes, desired max fuel pressure, and what method of fuel management you plan on using. But for 300whp the walbro 255lph will do the job.

I’m running a FMU Unit that my greddy kit came with, I know that I need a bigger squeeze out of my injectors to produce that much power, but which one do you guys recommend that I should get, right know I’m running 310cc RC injectors in my car, also consider that my motor only has about 1400 miles on it. so would it r a good thing to upgrade my injectors when i put in a new fuel pump?
.
TD05H-18G Turbo or as in the greddy kit

you'll need a lot more than a big squeeze to run 25 psi. w/ 310cc injectors. and realize that if you upgrade your injectors you'll also need to upgrade what controls them....there are several different ways to do this but he best is a well-tuned standalone.

Im not saying that i am going to run 25 psi soon, about when i have 10000 miles on my motor ill run 25 psi but in the mean while i just need a fuel pump that will let me redline about 10 pounds of boost on my motor so i think i would need a intank fuel pump but i really dont know which one to get? There are many out there , so for i seen people have walbro 255's on there applications !?

For tunning i have a VAFC

Spend your money on injectors. 310's wont get you to 300hp. Go for 550's or larger. Get some better fuel management. Then worry about your fuel pump later one.
FYI: The walbro should do the trick for your 310's and an 8:1 FMU and about 10 psi. Theres no way your gonna be at the 300hp mark with that though.

be careful though. i cracked my ringlands, #1, #4 runnign 10psi w/ my greddy kit and the walbro 255. i think those 310's are maxed out if you're sticking with stock fuel pressures...be careful
