Lonnie's single, if you even have a thought of going for over 500 hp get the Lonnie's dual. You'll thank yourself later.

I ran a racetronix pump with my STS and 60 lb injectors, worked fine.

Really depends on how far you want to take the car. Single pump kit will get you about 500rwhp the dual pump kit will help from there.

Go with the dual pump setup, you will be thankful. I ran a single with 60# injectors, and was running out of pump at 8 psi. Then I had to pull it all again to add the second pump. With a turbo setup, you can't really overdue your fuel setup.
