Walbro to much fuel for stock regulator?
Well I have a walbro in my sc300.
I was wondering if anyone noticed worse gas mileage after they installed theirs?
Or if it gives to much pressure for the stock regulator?

You may as well just cut your losses and add a turbo

Thats a good idea. But this car is gonna be my drift car. So everything will be loud except the exhaust. I cannot stand really loud exhaust.

which unit is it...if its the 255HP then yes, you are overrunning the stock FP regulator and you should go with a better one.
