stock pump with fmu = bad idea?

I'm looking to run 6psi on a d15 with a fmu setup, is it a bad idea to run the stock fuel pump? I know most will say replace it but I'm cheap, let me rephrase, will I be able to get away with the stock fuel pump?

i would at least put in an inline pump, since your stock pump will have trouble with putting out a lot of flow at higher fuel pressures

FMU's are designed to work with a booster pump

Re:stock pump with fmu = bad idea?

I used 9 bottles of nitrous on my stock 155K mile DX fuel pump... The zex dry kit would bunp my FP to about 80psi... The pump would run outta steam in 4th gear at higher RPMS.. I was using a 75shot...

Take it for what it is... I'm running 13psi on the fuel pump from my stealth TT and the car is running really rich still... AFC hack though..
