Fuel pump turbo question
Which fuel pump would be the best way to go if I am going to turbo charge my gen 4 prelude h22a1, because I heard that a Supra pump may not fit, so someone help me out here...

any gst/gsx pump should be a direct replacement....plus you can get them for relatively cheap from dsmtrader.com. but honestly, 90 bux fora walbro 255lph for your application isnt expensive.....just get the walbro pump

get an inline fuel pump if your running an fmu, trust me on this one.........but if your getting hondata or another good engine management system then get the walbro.....with an fmu the walbro's, or any other intank fuel pump just dont put out enough pressure at higher amounts of boost and thats when shit starts to blow up, but if your running moderate boost like say 5-6 psi them the walbro would prolly work great......

What is higher level of boost???
Turboford - has hundreds of people running mid 20psi and a 255 high pressure in tank pump... and when we keep our stock 35lb injectors and t3 and run the 25psi on them... that makes ALOT of fuel pressure... and no one has ever said "shit my walbro busted" on the board since I have been a member, over a year ago...
And I know a FMU is a special type of regulator which multiples fuel by boost pressure.. say 1.8 or 1.4 or how ever you do it.. but how much pressure do you really expect?? we have a base of 40 and thats stock.. Ive seen some run a base of about 60 with that same 25psi of boost... which is about 85psi of fuel and ran a 10.. with stock injectors and turbo...
I do agree.. an inline is helpful but dont say walbro's suck for high pressure.. you just have to get the HIGH PRESSURE one so it doesnt stop flowing fuel at high pressures...
