better fuel pump or not? I just recently put a NX wet kit on my 99 T/A running a 100hp shot and was wondering if my stock fuel pump will work alright. I've already put in NGK TR7 plugs and have done a couple 3-4 second bursts down some back roads with no problems but I don't want to really use it any more or take it to the track until I know for sure. Thanks
also if there is anything else you might think I'll need, let me know cuz other than exhaust and aftermarket ram-air, the car is completely stock.

thanks for the info. as far as the plugs, my application called for plugs that are two steps colder. I looked at the spark plug reference sticky at the top of the nitrous page and it said to go with the NGK TR7IX iridium plugs

Ive been running a 150 shot w/a 233/239 cam and supporting mods off the stock fuel pump for 3 years now and just recently changed my pump to support a 175 shot. My g/f has been running a 150 shot w/a mild comp cam for a year now and neither has had a problem with the stock pump. It would be safe to say that your stocker would be just fine with a stock setup.
