well first don't put in a 255 in a mild car..the 190lph is about the biggest I would go there has been time when the 255 has made cars really rich.... using the 190 and setting your psi around 38 it will run fine and the larger pump will fix the lean out of the weak 88 lph stock pump

there has to be a fuel pressure regulator on the passenger side fuel rail in order for the engine to run right.
