Icon6 is the stock fuel pump good enough?

hey guys,

im going to finally put on my turbo on my 97 honda prelude. im only gonna run like 8 pounds of boost. (its a stock engine i believe, bought the engine from someone and told me it was putting out around 220hp.). and i wasnt sure if i could use the stock fuel pump if it can keep up. and any recommendation of size of the fuel injectors?

thanks

most likely yes, but it never hurts anything to put a bigger pump on unless you are running light power and dual walbros LOL

I'd probably spend the $100 and get a 255 lph pump. Just for the peace of mind
