I think you mean what VOLUME. I am sure on a 'stock' CA a 140-150lph pump would work fine, but considering how cheap Walbro's are, you can get a 190lph or 255lph pump with install kit for $85-90.

the thing is i have in a pierburg pump (german) and its pushes 255l/hr. but its in the car about 2 yrs. i have a fuel gauge just before the fuel filter in the engine bay and it says 32 psi. so i wanted to know if that's enough or if the pump is starting to fail and not pushing the required fuel.

The fuel pressure regulator might be the part that's failing. If the diaphragm is worn out, it can leak excessively and not hold pressure as well.

I don't remember the correct idle/engine off pressure, but check the factory service manual, it has it in there.
