Re: TBI" how much fuel pressure does it take?
With TBI, it's as much about pressure as it is volume. I think you need about 18-20 PSI to make it work.

If you already have the Holley blue pump, you can try it without the regulator. It might work, but it is not really designed for this purpose. There are better choices if you need to buy one.
