Im gonna have to be the first to say search. Or at LEAST have a Hp goal in mind. From experience with my own build ur gonna be limited to around 450whp.

base pressure will be important.

with stock base pressure depending on your injectors, id say 450ish.

bump the pressure and you can get 600

U talking about running the ID1000's? Is that how u benefit from More Psi? Or just on ur average 1000cc+ injector?

My bet is that a walbro would run out of volume at higher press. Higher press = less flow right? So not sure how more press will really help with just a single walbro??

I have seen high 500's on a single 255 and E85 but the car was a freak of nature.

I can tell you from personal experience an intank 255 to an inline 255 will hold fuel pressure for upper 500whp on E85, dont know what happens beyond that.
