Walboro fuel pump on rev5 turbo

Post by almeida1234 »

Hey gang

Just want a bit of advise,
I have genuine Warboro pump installed recently.
At current moment modifications are apexi intake, japspped with decat, xpower intercooler and his blow off valve.
I was wondering as the fuel pump is more then requirement for current set up do I need a FPR to keep in check?
As otherwise it will run too rich due to walboro pump?

Will get a boost controller in the future.
Thanks

The stock FPR will regulate the flow by returning fuel to the tank. So you don't need adjustable fpr for just having a high flow pump :thumleft:

This , The stock regulator will sort things out, they are actually fine when working with much higher pressure and modifications, I was running over 400 bhp on a past mr2 and it still had the stock regulator in place... :eye:
