Walboro from k2rd.com is a way better pump for the money.

If that's not enough flow for you, (and it will beMORE than ample), go to an external pump or run two walboro's in series.

No.
You have a t2, which has the resistor pack to keep the flow down at idle and low load throttles.

12 psi is not a good idea on a stock intercooler.

75 of zex with the stock fuel pump, ecu, and injectors, not to mention intake, street port, and full exhaust?

You don't have enough fuel to support that set up right now if you have the stock fuel pump.

You got a pic of your car? Or is your sig just your wishlist?

none. You're already past your injector limits according to your mods.

Also, you should be running more than 9 psi with the listed mods in your sig.... something doesn't add up here...
