Show of hands how many of you use the stock fuel pump.
 
If you use the stock the fuel pump with your fi setup, how has it worked out for you, and what psi are you at.

The walboro 255's are so cheap that its tempting to pick one up. To me that seems like a lot of pressure for a 8 psi car making around 200 whp. The stock fuel pressure regulator can't even fucnction properly under those conditons at idle can it?

What does the stock fuel pump in the 91 CRX Si run at? Correct me if I am wrong but as long as there is not a need for more pressure in the lines due to the engine side of things, fuel pumps usually either work at full efficiency or they don't work at all correct?

Re:Show of hands how many of you use the stock fuel pump.
 
I wanted an answer to this same question.

I am running a stock pump on a 13psi d16a1/zc. Although, I just burnt out my stock pump that is about 2 years old.
I would opt for the larger pump myself, but I have an out of tank pump that would be a bitch to replace.

BTW I just got back from driving my car pushing 18psi....It's really fast. ;D

Heh, even with all the recemmendation of upgrading your pump for FI, I am still running the stock pump on my B18b pushing 10 psi with the help of Uberdata. All is fine so far and I don't suspect there to be any problems in the future.

Re:Show of hands how many of you use the stock fuel pump.
 
Do you have to drop the tank to switch the pump in a CRX? For some reason I though I saw somewhere that you could do it just by removing the storage compartment.

Spenser 04-27-2004 07:19 PM

Re:Show of hands how many of you use the stock fuel pump.
 
pretty sure you have to drop it.

In my SHO I just replaced the pump (in-tank) by takin out the back seat, and cuttle a hole right about where the pump is. MUCH easier than droppin the tank. Just put a stocker in there, but if I wanted to upgrade it'd only take me ten minutes now.

Re:Show of hands how many of you use the stock fuel pump.
 
yes you have to drop the tank. Not all the way, but just enough to put the fuel pump in the driver side/rear of the tank. I put the Walbro in my n/a hf getting ready for boost and it runs fine with a stock set-up.

I also have the stock one for sale. First $5 plus shipping takes it. ;D

Re:Show of hands how many of you use the stock fuel pump.
 
Depends on the car weather you have to drop the tank or not.

In my 90' Civic I had to drop the tank
In my 96' Integra I didn't have to

Still on the stock pump. 91 CRX
With an FMU on the A6, it seemed to only be good till about 7-8psi.

The B16 has 900cc faucets so I get a bit more mileage out of the pump. Just got a Walbro. The pressures on the stocker drop so bad from 7500-8500 that I can hit 90% duty cycle at 13-14psi.

Boost, are you sure? I thought I had a panel to access the pump too, but it's just the fuel level sensor I saw. I have an 89 too. ???
