leejt1979 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I have a question.. at what stage is it worth buying a better fuel pump? thinking of getting a Walbro but not to sure if it's actualy worth it until i get the car mapped???? I do wonder if when on full chat at about 7k if the old girl is getting enough of the optimax??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilkesyMB6 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I think its only needed if you turbo or go over 250bhp, dont quote me on that though lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

civicturbo79 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Standard fuel pump and injectors max out at 230 bhp at 3psi of boost. and any n/a build you are doinv will not make that . so all you may need is a fuel pressure regulator.Rich.
