you can, I would recomend upgrading anyway for added saftey. You will be pushing the limits of the stock one. I would just look at it as it being easier and cheaper to replace a fuel pump then an engine. Going with a Nitrious set up isn't something you wanna cheap out on. I will say though chances are you will be pretty safe with a fuel pressure saftey switch though, it's your call.

Not sure how long the old stocker would last, but I know quite a few people who've run them and havent had a problem. at least you have a fuel pressure safety switch. I run into too many people these days that think Nitrous is a small project. I ask them about safety items, and such, and they just reply "I dont need that stuff, my nitrous is on or off by this switch right here"
Heck a local F-body guy just put juice on his car. I think he's running a 125 shot. No colder plugs, no pulled timing, (it's an Auto), spraying through the shifts. Ohh well I guess

Can you get the wiring upgrade in time???? It will helpout the stock pump a lot. I think the hit is going to trigger the safety switch and the spray will be incosistent. What happens is the sudden large demand causes a dip in pressure till the regulator/pump catchup.
Make sure the filter is fresh and quality, may sound silly but the fuel filter is often neglected.
