    Question

    Guys, I'd like to ask of your opinions if
    I should get the MSD fuel pumps for the Walbro 255 for my '95 GSR w/ JRSC????

    I know the "recommended" one is Walbro 255
    but I heard the dealer said MSD is better
    and easier to install...it's installed externally at the fuel filter and the stock fuel pump can be left intact..what do you guys think??? Please let me know.

    John

    2 Words to say what pump you should buy, Endyn Bosch. I blew out 2 Walbro before I finally dropped the money on the bosch unit.

    Steve,

    Just out of curiosity, what boost are you running for those Walbro? I heard a lot of people are using it without a problem. It is a bitch to install since the damn pump is in the fuel tank.

    I'm only planning to do 6 psi for now...do you think the walbro is sufficient? Where can I get Endyn bosch?
    Thanks.

    Steve's running 6psi with the Bosch. The in tank install is a bit of work (compared to the Walbro which is easy), but well worth it.

    I'm running 10psi of boost on my GSR with a Walbro GSS342, but I have larger injectors in the car so the pressure never goes over 75psi.

    guys, thanks for all the replies...I've gone crazy today....ordered the JRSC and JRSC from the DEALER and had them INSTALLED...I'm f***ed..I know..cost? $2500 for charger,
    $120 for the pump, plus $600 labor for charger and $50 labor for pump installation.
    Total = $3460.25

    $50 for the pump is too much.

    I followed Greg's (Holden)instructions on his site and everything went without a hitch.

    Only took about 40mins.
