you're fine... thats what the fuel pressure regulator is for. you could run a walbro with a stock KA and still be fine.

I ran a walbro on my CA and still am running it on my KA.

Add me to the "I use a Walbro" list. The only complaint that I have about it is how loud it is, not with flow.

I installed one on my KA with 250K miles on it and it didn't give me any trouble.

i wonder if the walbro is louder than a z32 fuel pump, anyone know ?

Post by **Nismo1182** » Mon Jul 05, 2004 7:53 pm

I would assume so. I mean the Z32 one is meant to oem quietness so stupid people wouldnt complain of the noise. But then ofcourse noise can be suppressed with sound deadning crap.

i dunno... but the z32 was still kinda loud on my friends sr

Can the FPR handle the 255's flow at idle? Any solid data to confirm or deny this?

THey don't call them Whinebros for nothing

Some kits come with a sleeve that fits over the pump to reduce noise.

They aren't that loud, I was running twin externals, and that was loud. If the tunes are on or you are giving it a little bit, you cant hear it, at Idle you can

Well, I have a gutted trunk. That may be why mine bugs me;)

i cant hear mine at all unless im outside the car or the key is turned to 'start" but i havnt cranked the car yet (when the pump runs for a few seconds to pressurize the fuel system).
