too bad i just saw this... i just got rid of some precision 1000's a week or two ago.

i *might* have a walbro 255 pump laying around... i'll check in the next few days. If I do, i'll give you a good price on it if you want it :up:


good luck with the setup, sounds like it'll be nice

meh, its 1 part, and the only reason I'm buying it from ebay is because its 3 pieces of steel welded together. If someone on here can build me one for the same or more, i'll buy it from them. I just don't feel like trying to use crows feet to put my DP on. The DC5 has a shitty location for a top mount turbo :P

nice, let me know if you do, I'd probably buy it. The clubrsx one with the install kit is 102$ so.

Make sure that will fit the rsx yo

Have you looked into the sidemount manifolds? I saw a 505 whp 15psi pump gas 05 type s on youtube. Stock internals with a full-race stage 2 = hammertime
