So, I wire from the accessory that now goes into the pump (to actuate the relay) and from the relay to the battery and the pump?

Just want to make sure I've got this right. I may do it tonight.
I have a Walbro 255lph and I want it to do it's job. h:

Good info Jafro. I totally forgot about this but I remember my neighbor with the VR4 mentioning doing this and that he got great results!

:thumbup:

It's actually a DSM trick. On an 95-99 Eclipse Turbo, you can get enough fuel pressure out of the stock pump like this to safely run 15 PSI. The stock boost for that car is 11 PSI.

If you need wiring diagrams and parts lists, there are a few DSM sites with how-to's. Just don't bug the site owners with Honda questions, they won't care about your car (nothing personal). Try the ever-famous www.vfaq.com for info about the rewire. You'll need to click through to the VFAQ pages for there. Tons of people have already documented it with photo essays, everyone's is a little different, but the wiring is the same. If you have a fuel pressure gauge, let me know how it goes. :naughty:

Be nice to your fellow DSMers. They've been tweaking turbo cars since '84. A lot of turbo civics have tons of DSM parts in their kits, and many of the owners don't know it. :cheers:

PS: Sorry for hijacking the intercooler thread. I knew that turbo'd tweekers would be reading it.

good choice, the apex one sucks...i had it when i got my apex kit and it sounded like a horse fart or something also it had no adjustment besides some crappy little ring that wouldn't even stay put.

I have the blitz dd now and it works awesome...
