I'd get the racetronix w body fuel pump w/the harness and the 57 63 turbo. With a good tune you could run 20 psi, or prob a little more. You could also get a Hallman manual boost controller or go big with an electronic boost controller since it sounds like you have a 8-12 psi spring...that's if you ended up wanting to run more boost.

Id do the racetronix pump things amazing and your stock probably needs replaced any ways.
Google racetronix, then click fuel componets and click fuel pump assemblies (racetronix ) then ls1 (very last one)# fpa-001. Quick simple search

Get the harness with it worth the $50

FPWH-001 is the part num for the harness that others are using, to include myself.

You cannot just simply put in an inline pump. the stock pump wont be able to keep up the flow to supply the inline.

I am running the .57 trim, t3/t4, stage 3 wheel, .63 a/r and I love it. I wouldnt change mine to a bigger one for a LONG time.

The amount it will take can only depend 100% on your tune. If you dont have a good tune, then it wont even be able to take 2psi before it blows.
