Walbro 255 pump, other mods needed?

Got a new Walbro 255 HO put for free the other day. I recently purchased CamoCarls FD and I will be picking it up in a few weeks. I plan to do a single turbo setup fairly soon. The car already had a SRMotorsports intercooler, PFC, Greddy ICP and 3" TBE. So pretty much all I would need is the single turbo setup, injectors and a pump. Sense I have the pump lying around I think I will put it in now. Just wondering if the stock fuel pressure regulator will be able to handle the new pump. Few other cars I have built the stock FPR would be overrun by a Walbro 255. Also if there is anythign else you reccomend before the pump goes in. Thanks for the help, this will be my first FD I plan to leave the rotary in.

Put the pump in it will be fine. I have 2 fds with the supra pump and stock fpr. My pump was the limiting factor at my first tune. It takes 30 min to change it so JUST DO IT!

Sounds good, I figured it would be easy to put in. I just didnt want to overrun the stock FPR. Thanks

As the others above have said, you'll be fine. The Supra TT pump flows at like 280lph as compared to the Walbro's 255lph and I've been running the Supra TT with the stock FPR for sometime now without any problems.

not too keen on the SR intercooler, but most intercoolers out there are twin or single turbo specific. u probably need to get a different one for the single setup.
