Walbro 255 is the ubiquitous choice. It's its VFM which is the reason.

But there was a thread on here which showed a graph of, when at higher fuel demand, the voltages tailed off alarmingly i.e. just when you don't need it too! If it's to be believed, then that's not good i.e. a potential for melted pistons/big end failure through det.

The HRC's graph, by comparison, didn't tail off no where near as bad.


That said, I have a Walbo 255 on my 384bhp STi5... and also had it on my previous MY93 WRX running 282bhp. I had no issues, running-wise.

Disagree here, don't bother with a Walbro. Get a decent one. Pays dividens in the long run
