Default Confused about Fuel Pumps

Alright, I called up Speed Inc., and talked about upgrading my fuel system. I have the mods listed bellow, and will be installing headers in the next month, the cam this summer after I buy the rest of the parts for it. Anyways, I thought I would have to upgrade my fuel pump.

I was told I don't need to, only if I am spraying a lot or have F.I. What do you guys think? I AutoX frequently in the summer. Should I just rest assured the stock fuel system will be ok?

It would depend on how much you want to spray. Your stock fuel system is good for about 450rwhp anymore and I would at least change the pump.

With all that BMR stuff, you may need a new pump.

Seriously, like nate said.

the wet kit should come with a pump anyways? no?

with a wet kit (if tuned right) all you would need is a 255 pump and the tune till 600rw.
