Yes that one will work but it will not fit the same as stock. The walboro is bigger around then the stock pump.. you need to shave the pump cage for it to fit. Its not much modification to make it work.

i'm confused, i though we need a return fuel line to do a walbro 255...since our fuel pump is returnless, they don't make any fuel pump for our civic...i'm not a newbie...but i thought the only way to use a walbro 255 only if we do a return fuel line

You DONT need a return setup to use an aftermarket fuel pump. You DO need a return line to use an adjustable fuel pressure regulator.

Common,
There was no specifics and you know it!

Then following Q arises:

What need to be done to use rsx-s intank pump and will it help to get more fuel to the engine?

Ok let me explain something to you. A fuel pump sends fuel, THATS IT. It is up to the ecu,regulator,injectors to determine how much. IF you use stock injectors/regulator with an aftermarket pump you have accomplished nothing. You need to either upgrade the pump and injectors and use an emanage to tune them or go all out: upgrade the pump and injectors, convert to a return setup and add an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. these 2 ways are the only PROPER way to do it. Before you ask, NO there is no adjustable fuel pressure regulator out right now that works on a returnless setup. Also there seems to be no replacement aftermarket fuel pump for our cars. Anything you do will take some modifications of the fuel pump assembly.

My suggestion to you.. get RSX Type-S injectors, Walboro 255 lph pump and emanage. Thats minimal for a turbo setup. It will give you the fuel needed to run your setup. Do it right the first time.

What you trying to explain I've already learned .... years ago.
I have a turbo set up, its running....
My problem: I need lillte extra fuel to get to the engine (to the firewall) so all my injectors can burn it.
Therefore I asked if there is something that I can use with returnless system to aid stock pump under boost to supply extra to all my 6 injectors to burn it.
My initial thought was to use rsx-s intank pump, but I dont know much about it. So if I use rsx-s pump (any other pump??) will I get more fuel to my injectors to burn or not???
