Default Is it OK to add a high flow fuel pump on a stock motor?

Sorry to post this again, BUT noone directly answered my question the first time around. I am going to go turbo here soon, but I already have my in-tank fuel pump. If I popped it in now would it be OK since the motor is stock? Thank you.

You will be ok. I did the same thing for about 3 months untill my turbo went on.

it would not run rich. the injectors will only inject as much fuel as it needs, the rest will just run back through the return line.

I installed my pump almost 4 months ago and I have no problems so far. The turbo project keeps being pushed back. I even went on a 600 mile trip with it and no change in mpg.
