Default Walbro 255 inline, Did I just waste my money?

I just ordered a walbro 255 inline pump and after doing some research..bassackwards I know...I think I just wasted my money. I have a h/c, 6.0, and I put down 389rwhp, 360rwtq witha th400 and a moser 9". I bought the pump because I just bought a nitrous kit and I'll be spraying a 150-200 shot. Will this pump do what I need it to or did i just waste my money?

Yes,you did waste your money.We still had alot of pressure drop with the inline pump.
Dual intank pumps would be better.You need fuel volume.

For the motor I'd suggest a single pump racetronix pump kit (you'd be okay on the 150 shot too). If you'll be spraying a 200 shot I'd suggest looking at a stand alone system for the nitrous:

That's a nice piece! How many runs can you get out of that size tank? I definately like the ability to run a higher octane for the nitrous only. I cancelled my order for the inline pump, I think I'll be giving you a call on that stand alone

Quite a few, figure on a 200 shot around 10 or 11. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,
Matt

We found on a H/C car that the Racetronix runs out quick on the juice.A 100shot would run lean at the topend of the track due to dropping fuel pressure
