Fuel Pumps -

Walbro 255 for KA/SR will fit with CA, correct?

Secondly, is an FPR needed, or is the pump just bolt and go?

Do you think a 190lph would be enough for a low boost application?

To be honest, I have a buddy that has been running 15psi on his SR w/ stock fuel pump. Mind you I in no way reccomend this at all. Ever. Under no circumstances. But it can be done. Just don't.

The walbro's are all within 10-15$ or so of each other, might as well go for a 255 high pressure :D

I got mine from auto performance engineering in Garland since it was a local pickup and pretty good price :D http://www.apeusa.com

Normal or High-Pressure more beneficial?

High pressure.

Normal is for an n/a system running lower pressures.

You would have to be insane to "save" $100 on skippin out and using your 15 year old fuel pump.

So the stock fuel pressure regulator has no problem with the HP 255 unit?

Also anybody have a better/cheaper link than http://www.apeusa.com? Not that their prices are high or anything....just being a cheap b!atch.
