Fuel Pump?
 
Here is the Set up.... Garett T3/T4 going to run 8-9 psi on a 95 b18b in a CRX.. DSM injectors, SMC MAP Controller, and MSD BTM.. Front Mount Sperco 24x6x3.. Do you think I sould get a 255 Fuel Pump or just use the stock one? The SMC said no need to upgrade the pump unless you are going to run more that 11 psi ...

They might say you don't need to get a fuel pump but it's still a good idea. Better to be safe then sorry. Puls you always want to go high, boost is addictive. Goodluck!

If I were you, I'd just grab a fuel pump out of some kinda turbo car ( supra, 3000GT, DSM ). Anything that came factory turbocharged is sure to make enough fuel to support a turbo 1.6L; then again the walbro 255lph can be found for a little over $100, even though that's more fuel than almost ANY 1.6L would need... Most DSM guys in the 11's run 190lph pumps, they say that you only need a 255lph if you wanna run 10's ( in a DSM ), so unless you are making over 400hp, I'd say a 190lph would be more than good. If you get a 255lph and don't need it, it will over work the pump and MAY cause it to fail earlier than normal.. I ran a 75shot on my civic and the pump ( the stock one ) would run out of steam in the higher RPM, but I only used 116 oct with the 75 shot... I'm going to put my Stealth R/T pump in my civic when I get around to turboing it..
