34619, How does this setup sound to everyone?
Posted by GorkoRacing, Nov-19-02 02:48 AM
Ok, I'm ordering the fuel parts, wastegate, and guages for my bastard of a turbokit AGAIN. Here is what I'm looking at:
Walbro 255lph fuel pump - just bought it from howell $90
Missing link - $55 from group5
SFMU - ??
Tial Wastegate - ??
Guages ill be getting will be boost, egt, fuel press, oil press, and a/f ratio and maybe a SAFC.
My question is does this sound like a good setup? I got the turbo, piping, and connectors. Also where would I get a 45 degree flange to fit my bov so I will be able to close my hood? If i get all this stuff I should be able to finally put this damn thing on.

OK I ordered the walbro 255 pump but did I order the right one as i hear there is a high pressure one as well? Will either of these be ok with my setup?

I think you only need to run the high pressure pump if you are still using stock injectors and a 12:1 FMU. With the bigger injectors you won't need those crazy high fuel pressures. You are running bigger injectors, right?

He needs the high pressure pump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you ran a 1:1 fuel pressure regulator, it would not matter. If he plans on using ANY fmu device to increase fuel pressure, he NEEDS a high pressure 255LPH pump.

Call howell back ASAP!
