im getting a 16g and a ported manifold in january (damn shops full till then ). i hafve a 3 inch turboback, K&N, mbc, boost/egt gauges, bov, and im installing a walbro 255 sometime before i install the turbo. im just wondering if anyone has run a similar setup and how much boost they pushed before they hit fuel cut on the stock injectors.

im $300 too short

im probably going to get those after the turbo then im going to work on the 60ft times.

Don't install the Walbro 255 unless you're getting an AFPR; you'll have trouble with the stock regulator overrunning giving you messed-up base fuel pressure. 190 would be a better choice.

i would imagine that if the stock fpr is in good working order it will regulate fine with a larger pump.

It won't handle the large Walbro pump however without overunning, especially if the pump is rewired. I agree with the above post a 190 will be plenty for now. You can run low 12's or better with a 190 although according to your profile you have that beat slightly.

gotta love those traps you get with the turbine

so what you guys are basically saying is the fpr will get overrun and make my car run rich as rockefeller if i go with the 255 (even though im going to be running the 16g with the stock injectors), but if i go wit hthe 190 it wont overrun and ill be set for better times that i wil lever run in this car?

keep in mind i dont have an afc yet.

It may overun some but not nearly enough to cause tuning issues or a slow car. If you are going to be running a 16g for a while then the 190 will be plenty. I know a guy who runs an SBR M-50 and runs low 12's on a 190 pump with 660 injectors. Besides it saves you money since you don't need the AFPR and that is always good news. :laugh:
