By your post title, I figure that you had just stubbed your toe on one, or it stole your girlfriend. :laugh:

This is a place I came across a while ago... (look under the "Small, offset inlet inline w/ outlet" area)

That thing must sound insane. The 255 that I had in my ATX was friggin loud. The HP model must almost be unbearable. It was still cool to put the key in and hear it spin up.

it is pretty damn loud, espicially since i have the back seat out right now. however once the car is running you cant hear it over the exhaust :laugh::laugh::laugh:
 
hey how are you controling your fuel....me and my boss were fighting over fuel...i got 440cc injectors and im going to buy a walbro pump and that fpr you told me to get....well, he said that im going to flood the motor. what you think?
 
you will flood the engine if you dont have a proper tune to control the larger injectors.

i have a tune via the xcal2. you need to do the same. either with an xcal or a flip chip

SAFC is not enough. you need to recalibrate the PCM via a custom tune from a chip or xcal so that it knows it has the larger injectors. otherwise it will try to open them like they are the smaller injectors and you will run insanely rich if you can even get the car started.

i have problems starting my car with the 42# injectors as the tune is not quite right at startup. once its running its perfect though.

you will also need a larger MAF since you will max out the stock unit and run lean. the PCM also needs to be calibrated for the MAF
 
Here is a picture I found online of the GSS340, GSS341, GSS342. They are all the same pump but have different inlets on the bottom for different applications:

you get the proper pump for your application (inlet/outlet size and locations) and either use the sock that comes with it if it fits or clean your stock sock and reuse it.
