How much power are you looking to make?
The Walbro 255lph is kinda overkill even for a pretty modded NA...

Yeah... just a TII pump, or FD pump would probably be more than enough.

Yeah man. That car is totally stripped and sanded. No different colors in the jams or anything to worry about there.

Banzia, your choice but I like the blue. But I dont have to drive it either.
