I know I need a new radiator, but i was wondering, as the CX has the weakest engine (in the world) that honda puts in their cars in the last decade, am I going to need to replace/upgrade the fuel pump for my swap?

Thanks~

 

yes you should upgrade it.

NO.
all honda teg and civic fuel pumps are the same.
well 5th gen and 6th gen civics and 3rd gen tegs at least are equal.

do NOT waste your time or money.
I have a B18C1 in my '92 CX and it runs like a champ on the stock CX fuel pump, even with a JUN ECU that runs up to 9500 rpm.

if you are going to go forced induction it would be wise.. but thats a whole other ball game.

 

ya the pump is pretty much the same, they just have differant FPRs

don't bother upgrading

 

the only way i would upgrade my fuel pump is if you are going to boost or run NOS higher than a 60 shot.

i hav a vx and changed the fuel pump and the car did feel more solid as in the tires breaking loose when i hit vtec with a vision chipped ecu

 

First, If your stock radiator is in good shape and your not running A/C it will work fine with a B16 swap. I have had no problems with my VX radiator and B16 even with no fan (temp switch bad) in Florida. If you have the money then I would get you a del sol dual core but it's not needed.
I'm also using a stock fuel pump and it works fine although I plan to replace it just to have a newer one.

 

thats incorrect.

SOHC/non VTEC pumps are 79lt/hr
all VTEC/ITR pump is 131 lt/hr

its a good easy cheap upgrade.
not trying to be a dick Owen , but the pumps are in fact different.

 

Good info
