Any good flowing TBI fuel pumps??
Here is what I am doing. I am running a carb setup with a jegs billet FPR. It can take an inlet psi up to 20 psi and I ran this setup on my last car with a TBI pump. This car is making more power NA than the last car with nitrous . What is the stock TBI fuel pump good for? This motor should be making 320+ hp to the wheels basing it off its previous setup and what I have done. I will also be spraying it with atleast 150 shot. I have searched but havent seen anything, maybe I missed something. Thanks

stock pumps can go up to 15 psi but the volume is more of the concern...I would think you could jump up to the walbro 190lph fuel pump and be fine...

Volume is what Im looking for , but it cant put out more than 20 psi because of my regulator. I wont need more than 5-7 psi.

I dont have any direct references, but when you turn down the pressure (regulator) of a fuel pump, the flow it can supply is greatly increased. you should be fine with that HP at ~6psi with a TBI pump.

you can prolly get away with the pump you have but i wouldnt trust it. its a tbi pump. the volume you are looking for can be supplied. but your problem is going to be when the nitrous is applied the pressure isnt going to go up. you might need a vacuum referenced reg. prolly depends on how much nitrous you are going to run.

Re: Any good flowing TBI fuel pumps??
My initial thinking is that you'd have enough fuel volume with the stock tbi pump too. Especially when your decreasing it's working pressure.
