Default what is the limit on a 190lph walbro?

what would be a safe limit?
and does the 255 make a lot more noise?
and is the high pressure version going to give me problems?
and do i need an extra fitting kit?
thanks!

I have the 255 as well, and even with 100% gutted rear interior I still cant hear mine. I dont know why people complain about the noise.

I have run 255's in as lot of cars from Mustangs to Hondas, never hear them more than when they prime at startup. If you are that concerned about noise, find a new hobby.

No. Get a 10mm socket, screwdriver, pull the current pump out, put the 255 in and be done.

i've never heard mine, i have full interior though. i usually always have music playing. but i have turned off the music to see if i can here it. remember this your cars going to be loud either way if you need a 255 walbro. because that means your actually stepping up to a turbo.
