Do i need an upgraded fuel pump and/or injectors?

Question is in Title.

Here are my mods:

S5 13bt
3" turbo-back
3" intake with cone filter
Ported Wastegate running about 11psi
Removed all emissions
light weight flywheel
MSD 6AL CDI Box
Knight Sport Tuned N374 ECU

I was looking into picking up an FD fuel pump just to be safe. Should i get injectors as well. I dont have a safc or anything but would i need that to control the fd fuel pump. I have an autometer a/f guage and it reads about one or two lines into rich when i get on it. I just want to be safe.

You would be fine with a FD fuel pump. You pretty much just repeated my setup... except I run a FD pump.

That autometer gauge will not tell you anything specific. I did run a wideband on my setup and stayed well within safe limits at 10.5 psi.
