guys with high HP are you guys running a Warboro 255 fuel pump?
you think it would handle about 300+ hp daily and 500+ at the track with SS fuel lines?

 

im hoping itll handle 400 daily with some large injectors on stock lines

 

anyone else?

 

Just recently.... 689 hp at 24psi with Walbro 255 HP. Part # GSS 351.
Make sure you run over a 1/4 tank of fuel if you are at the track.

 

i want to know too anyone else?

so you dont starve for fuel, lean out, and KABOOM...

i've tested walbro 255's and 255 high pressures (the high pressure is mostly hype, practically same ****) on RC engineerings fuel pump dyno, and at .5 BSFC, they are good to at least 740 bhp. and .5 is pretty rich for these vtec engines

 

How come I ran a walbro in my old civic and it sounded fine, but in my teg the walbro sounds like crap when you turn the key to on position??

not sure, is it the same exact pump from the civic?

 

yeah its a different pump but same brand, it makes a ugly screechy sound

 

might be going out..send it to rc engineering for testing, or i can get it done there for cheap. email if you need it. steve@tech43.com

 

yeha thanks.
I was trying to decide because I also have aeromotive A1000 fuel pump and im trying to decide which one im going to run.

 

the aeromotive is overkill..noisy..a bitch to install, etc etc. if you are worried, just get a new walbro, they are cheap. good luck.

yeha i know thats why i asked if it would be ok for my setup.

 

Terry made over 600whp on his walbro 255 on stock lines.

i havent put the power to mine yet, but its like 3.5 years old and holds up great.
and very good idea not to run it lower than 1/4 tank on it, will stress the pump too much
