A Deatschwerks DW300 (340 LpH) and up would probably do the job, can't confirm fitment but it looks relatively similar in size to other aftermarket ones (pretty unlikely you'd find a kit).

YUp. Big pumps move a lot of fuel and it all has to go through the regulator at idle. Bigger is better is a great mantra but with fuel pumps it's a double edged sword if you don't upgrade everything else. Another common problem with big pumps is heating the fuel and getting vapour lock if you're not careful.

Good thing the L67's come with a pump controller.

Most fuel line these days is e85 rated so it's just standard replacing the hoses with new ones . And barb fitting the rails .

vz sedan vs ute gsx1400
i fitted a raceworks adjustable fpr 6AN orb 8mm barb fittings as the original factory ones have been discontinued cannot get them anymore and i brought 2 new genuine vs v6 inlet fuel 725mm

hoses of ebay for the correct fittings the one that fits the vs fuel rail push in and held by a single screw is the hardest to find unless

you find a 2nd hand inlet hose or modified cut and soldered the original fpr or tap the ends fit AN fittings or change to vt-vy fuel rail
and i still have the ends that i cut off from new hoses
