Hi everyone, my name is Ricky im new to the evo M forums and a proud new owner of a Beatufiul WW 06 Evo IX, i dont post really as i just read mostly, i used to be apart of the Subaru world for a long while back 13 years ago and havnt had another car to build until now and this Evo is one our dream cars, it has a ton of work done 2.3l 6262 percision etc. but as me being me im redoing everything to my standards. Ive searched for proper answers for this but a lot of the threads get a little off topic. So here it is

right now car has a decent tune in it, injectors are way small since the first owner ran menth injection with 780 injectors, new tune is just on 93, havnt been able to log anything yet, wating on my cables. Its running now a walbro 255

but im going to CBRD for a fresh new tune with a fresh fuel system.

Question is im going to a walbro 450 and ID 1050s and a fuel lab FPR, since im gonna have a FPR, im assuming since i can adjust my fuel pressure And be regulated that i can just throw it in with the 780 injectors i have now and set the stock Fuel Pressure that ill be ok until i get a tune, it should make a difference between that and the 255 due to my regulator? Or am i just wrong on that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.


just and FYI i have every supporting parts to have this pump run correctly from fuel lines to hard wired.

thank you in advance

thanks joe, appreciate it, i shouldve been a little more specific, im not putting the injectors in until right before the tune, i have everything setup to where i can drop em in in about 10 mins so i was gonna do it in the parking lot. I was hoping to have the fuel pump and FPR installed before i take the 2 hour trip, my thinking was that with that larger pump ill be ok with the FPR since what isnt needed from the larger pump will be sent back to the tank, essentially not making a difference from the wally 255 and the stock FPR, since my injectors will only flow as much as they were set during the last tune. *My thoughts* just seeing if i was wrong or not.

thanks!

thanks Minus, great to be apart of another awesome community! Im hoping ill be right lol, but if not ill be able to do the fuel pump in the parking lot also lol, i have a radium hanger, im doing this build right as much as i can, ive seen the mods of the stock hangers but with my situation now i would like to install stuff in my car that specifically made to work with the pump im using, worse case scenarios i have an untouched stock hanger, im doing all this because im eventually gonna go E85 but for some reason theres not any pumps in Delaware, ill be ready to switch over with just a swap of the injectors, just dont know when that will be just yet. And as of right now it makes some great power this car was built perfectly for how i drive, love them back roads just want a great reliable tune With plenty of power to spare. thanks again for chiming in brother!🤘

Thanks brother for the info 🙏🏻, thats great news, what you said is what i was kinda thinking would happen, well see how this new hanger turns out, if anything i might just drop in the fuel pump and injectors in the parking lot of the shop right before the tune, im on my verge of learning to tune its something ive been needing to do since i live so far from tuners, just to be able to log and due enough adjustments to get me to a shop reliably, i can tune carburetors havnt dabbled in the EFI part yet, my eyes have been hurting due to all the reading lol. But again thanks again brother 🙏🏻
