Evo 8 fuel pump

Hey Guys,

So my appointment for my tune is coming up at the end of this month and I been thinking if I should upgrade my fuel pump. I have been looking at walbro 255 and if do get it do I need to upgrade the injectors too. My current mods are catback exhaust, high flow cat, downpipe, upper and lower intercooler piping, and intake.
So let know what you guys think.

Thanks.

For what you're running now you don't need to change injectors on 93

you can get the walbro 255 if you want but alot people don't like the loud whine it makes. I'm going with a deatschwerks 300 fuel pump (320lph vs 255lph from walbro). With those mods you don't really need to upgrade injectors just yet. I had more stuff than you (tbe exhaust, fmic with all pipes, intake, mbc) and my car leaned out at 6k rpm, stock fuel pump and injectors. I'm going to go with dw 1000cc injectors too.
