This is what I have for a boost controller/AFR meter. Very happy with it.

Lol I did think you were babying it below 2 to 3k RPM. I should've known better than to think you'd stay completely off the throttle lol

yes good.

[rajicase]

yes good.

see what you've done? ??

[Jab31169]

Sounds like I need to run you before you turn up the boost

12# spring.
Most here running up to 24psi run a 12# spring.

[vollosso]

Yesh. 12#.

I'm down for some pulls whenever so hit me up if you'd like. I'm close to that area anyways. I rarely go to c&c but I'm gonna try next weekend

ANyone know what "sock" I need for the walbro 255 I just got?

[jakeE36325]

I saw a diy where a guy cut the case off an oem pump and clamped it to the 255. Not the cleanest install but it's free.

[pbonsalb]

I would splurge on a filter that fits the pump.

Im pretty sure I know the outcome already but I'd like to see it in person anyways

Dont quite get you, how are you running 24 PSI through a Motor when your waste gate spring is open at 12?

It's all for fun anyways, win or lose.

flyfishvt is talking about mounting the pump to the stock housing
you're talking about the prefilter that is on the pump as a strainer to keep out the big chunks of sadness that may be lurking in your tank.

[flyfishvt]

Aaaaahhhh. Sorry for the confusion. Didn't your walbro come with a sock? The only difference I saw was where the filter attaches to the pump my walbro has a different type fitting.

No didn't come with one. Hmmm

[MisterM52]

So how much boost are you putting through Raji, 24 PSI as these guys suggest?

[pbonsalb]

24 is the new 12. Its amazing the progress the youngsters have made.

[rajicase]

Lol you guys kill me..

I put in a 12 psi spring today.

Anyooonneeeeee know what pump filter I need??

[pbonsalb]

There is a 255 with a hole offset that fits best. Might also be some filters that fit better. If you search around you may find the details.
