Default Turbo Fuel Pump??

Alright, I have a 1998 Ex and the fuel pump went out on me a couple days ago. I do have plans on putting a turbo on the car in a few weeks. I've heard that the stock OEM fuel pump is better than a Walbro 255L, but then I've heard the opposite. Im trying to find out which fuel pump would provide me with better performance. I appreciate the help. Thanks

Walbro is hands down the best fuel pump you can get for a honda especially for a turbo setup. I think the oem fuel pump can do something like 208 lph, and the the walbro can do 255 lph.

walbro FTW.
Do not listen to anyone about OEM being better than a walbro. If that were the case, don't you think we all would just keep our stock pump?
don't forget your injectors too!!
Good luck!

Walbro isnt the BEST, but it will flow more than OEM. They usually only last about a year or so from what ive heard.

Do you "believe" everything you hear. People commenting on parts that they "heard" feedback from but have no personal experience with is what puts alot of false BS babble out on the net.

Not at all. Simply bringing the point up so OP can do a bit of research.
