Walbro 255 fuel pump...not good for my 2000GT?

[the98stang]

Hey guys I was reading up on the Walbro 255 fuel pump and aparently they aren't good for returnless fuel systems. Does this mean I should get a different fuel pump? What fuel pump should I get to support a 100 shot of nitrous? Also, how can the SVT Focus pump be better than the Walbro 255 if it only has a 190 lph rate? Thanks for any help guys.

Because they are different style pumps. The Walbro is a gyrator pump meant to be full balst all the time. The Ford returnelss pumps are turbine style which are meant to deliver varying amount of fuel as commanded by the ECU. If you run a Walbro in a returnless car, it'll fail in a short time and driveability will be nothing to write home about. The Focus FP is fine up to close to 400 RWHP.

I have also heard that others are using the Ford GT pumps and they are pretty cheap from the ford parts counter like $100

On a nitrous injected motor a 255 pump will work just fine.
