Hey I know i read 1000 threads on this but i just wanted to make sure...
i was oging to buy a 190lph fuel pump cause im only running my stock injectors for now.... i need to know for sure if a 255lph pump is too much in any way for the stock injectors....
i probably will update the injectors way far down the road like over a year llater or something....and i wouldnt want to change the pump again...so will it def. be alright.?? all my other mods will be heavy just look at my sig...

If you get an adjustable fuel pressure regulator you should be ok with the larger pump...it will take a little tuning, but you shouldn't overload the injectors that way

I need to swap out the stock one in my 92, and wanted to toss in a 190 or 255,(because I want to add on a Kenny Bell )in the near futer.

Had the same questions about tossin a bigger pump in.

it's like a garden hose....you can have all the water in the hose but according to how hard you squeeze the nozzle (fuel pressure regulator) denotes the amount that actually comes out
