As above? I'm building a v6 corsa and should be around 255/260bhp when finished, Is it essensial to buy a uprated fuel pump like a Bosch 044 or can I make do with the current setup?

Engine has had some head work, different cams, 3.8 bar fuel reg, etc and currently sat at 234bhp but with my a new manifold and a remap hoping for about 255-260 so will my fuel pump (MPI) be ok for it?

Very sorry, it's a 3.0 x30xe V6. Has had head ported and polished, timing advanced a few degrees, x25xe ECU and inlet plenum (more torque this way) Free flowing 2.5" exhaust system with (hopefully will be buying) a btb manifold system (6-2-1) branched, Light xe flywheel, 3.8 bar fuel reg, F18CR gearbox etc. currently at 234 bhp but with a modest ramap and the manifold system, hoping to get around 255-260.

Nic, any model numbers for the genuine walbro one so i can do a bit of googling?

Seems like it's a direct replacement but after searching for a while I think the standard one should be fine. Spoke to a few guys too. Worst comes to worst if it isn't running right when I fire her up then I will know what to upgrade. Just need it running for now.
