My car runs really rough when its in boost... im pretty sure the problem is my fuel delivery, im runnin 42lb injectors with the Walbro 255lph fuel pump.
I need some suggestions on which fuel fuel pump i should go with to support more horsepower, and hopefully smooth the car out some.

you're running a walbro and 42 lb injectors and you're having problems with only 10 PSI?

why not just get an inline boost pump?

What kind of Boost pump would you recommend?
The car is very jumpy, not very smooth....

get rid of that Walboro pump ASAP!!!!!

it's not designed for the returnless fuel system and can die without warning.

the Aviator pump will be fine. it will work and be somewhat cheap.

the Cobra tank is better because of the baffles. but it's more expensive.

aviator pump here and over 400rwhp with knock on wood no problems at all so far. under $200 for it versus around $700 for the cobra setup.
