bet your alternator is dying, and i bet thats why its bogging, loss of spark
Does the alternator belt squeel ever? and have you had to charge your battery?
Otherwise, Check your fuel pressure to confirm if it actually has something to do with the pump or not.

go threw the motions, undo the neg when it car is on and see if it still runs..... turn all your accessorys on and your stereo up and see if makes your car die faster check all the wiring you did for your walbro u fucked something up if it ran fine b4

dude.. its hard to *** up your fuel pump, possible, but most likely not.
Do this
Clean all your grounds from the battery.. either with sand paper, or with an adaptor for a drill.. wire brush.
Make sure all the grounds are TIGHT!!! this is very important.
After that, i would test the battery with a Test light, and see if it's putting out the right power. If you dont have a test light, then see if you can borrow a battery from someone or try another one.. batteries are freaks.. sometimes you'll think its electrical .. and its just your battery.
After all that, then you can pin it to either the alternator, and lastly the fuel pump.
Its amazing what a dying battery or alternatorcan do!.. especially when there is the smallest need for more power drawn.
i think its a power issue.. alternator or Battery.
