Default D16A6 with 75 shot. 255 or 190 lph Fuel pump?

I'm getting ready to order my Walbro Fuel Pump for my 75 shot nitrous setup. Should I buy the 190lph, 255lph LP, or the 255 lph HP? I wan't to have enough fuel for the nitrous but not have to mess with my idle pressure.

i've had 255's in stock-engine'd cars, and they idled perfect...

bigger the better IMO....but either would work fine.

What engine was it? I'm sure a bigger dual cam would accept the added fuel pressure better. My little SOHC may not like it.

The stock fuel pump is fine for a 75 shot anyway...

I've heard, but i'm a paranoid ************. Here's my total setup:

-Retard timing 3 deg.
-Two stage colder NGK plugs.
-Cometic HG.
-ARP headstuds.
-MSD window switch.
-Walbro (?)lph fuel pump.
-Run Sunoco 116 when spraying.

I'm thinking the 190 should be fine...

Cool man, better safe than sorry I guess. Just so you know, the 255lph pump is like 10 bucks more so...just thought I'd throw that in there.

Well, i wasn't worried about the price, in fact my supplier has them 4 the same price.

I just wanted to know if the 255 would **** with my idle or fuel pressure.

What are you using to tune with anyway? The pumps can raise pressure a few psi but usually not much.

I'm just gonna strap all the stuff I listed on, and go to a dyno. Let them sort out my A/F ratio and I'm done.
