Walbro Fuel Pump
I need a new fuel pump to accommodate my nitrous system. Im looking at the Walbro 255lph. Do I want hi or low pressure? Also do I need a new FPR?
thanks

I'd avoid ebay for the pump. I have heard of knockoff Walbro's.
here is a fuel pump guide (it's meant for the 3000GT but it's a good read): http://www.stealth316.com/2-fuelpumpguide.htm

walbros are hit or miss.. Ive heard of them dying on people....
a factory denso made pump from a high end japanese car is good, like supra , z32 etc..
but if you need a easy affordible replacement, the walbro will do. You can probably find some local in your area too if you call around some performance shops.

I've had my Walbro 255 for 4 years. I know a LOT of guy run them and never had a problem. If you constantly run your fuel low, it will run hot and die prematurely.
Don't blame on the pump.

so high or low pressure? also what do you mean run your fuel low? like not use the full potential of the pump? because a 255 will support about 800bhp which I will not even be close to.
