Need advice for my fuel system?

02z 6SPD with TEA 6.0Lw/73-75cc chambers with 224/581 230/591 114+4 and a Vortech G-trim with a 2.65" pulley with 50# bosch injectors and the (50GPH@70PSI) T-Rex in line pump that comes with the kit and I want to know what if anything should I do about my fuel pump situation? I am guessing around 600 + HP? I don't know if that will be enough? Any info you could give me would help me decide what to do before I get it tunned ETC... Thanks in advance.

Ditch the T-Rex and do an intank Walbro 340M. Hot wire it to the alternator with some heavy wire and replace the rails and you should be good for about 650rwhp.

Remember that an in-line will only push as much as it is fed by the stock pump. Alot of the boosted guys are running dual in-tank Walbros.

Most likely they are buying the pumps from one of the sponsors on the right and then installing them themselves. There are quite a few write ups on it. I got my pump from a local speed shop for $85.
