I plan to go with the Racetronix pump but as of now I am running 60lb on stock so if your pressure is still holding up you can put it off until you get ready.

I bought two Walbros for $90 a piece shipped with the line, electrical connectors, socks, etc from a sponsor here. $180 plus a couple cheap parts from home depot plus a fuel pump relay equals a dual in-tank setup that's capable of 800RWHP (from what I've read) and is almost as quiet as stock. Now, that's a freakin' deal.
