The fuel pump does pump out more volume too... fuel pumps are rated by volume and pressure. I have seen bad fuel pumps to where they could bump up pressure just fine but when the load/demand went up the car stumbled.
The volume on this one is 255 liters per hour, for those that didn't catch that

yes volume too.. though amount of volume is usually dictated by injector opening, the bigger injector you have the more fuel pressure you will need. And more pressure=faster spray speed=more fuel :D

But too large an injector on a insufficient fuel delivery system and you will starve the rail and have unstable pressure in the rail so you end up with one cylinder running stoich or too rich and one cylinder running lean. Conversely if you have have too much fuel being delivered the car will be more difficult to tune and you will end up with with a crappy idle and horrible gas mileage but WOT should be perfect.

Yep! A 550cc injector rated at 3 BAR or pressure might flow 600ccs at 4 BAR or 5 BAR of fuel pressure. Plus if it's a really good injector design like an EV6 or EV9, the spray pattern gets SUPER DUPER sweet and it atomizes perfectly.

paul could you explain more on injector design (EV6,Ev9) id like to understand injectors a little better. btw iv got the dezod (deachwerks...however you spell it...lol) 550cc, i know they are pintle design but are ball type better, what about spray patern on the deachwerks...how would you rate them?
thanks in advance
thanks in advance

So for 550cc's is a pump needed? I run 550's and have not noticed any lean spikes at WOT from starving.
Also for anyone considering buying,

Same part number as dezod, comes with install kit, but about 25 bucks cheaper. (sorry dezod, gotta point out a good deal tho)

first i would really wanna thank the person wo wrote this DIY it was really helpfull on my install. i am new to this forum and im just amazed by the lack of motivation on some people to do thigs themselfs. i have no idea how much a walbro fuel pump install would cost but im sure more than 100 easy. its cool to drive a fast car but its cooler to build it urself.
i also had a question too. i noticed that since i did the install it takes a while to start the car and sometimes i even have to pump the gas a few times, is this normal?
