Default Do I need to upgrade my fuel pump

I am in the prosess of upgrading by turbo set up. My old set up was as follows
b16a2
rev hard stlye cast mani
.48 a/r .60 comp t3 turbo
2.50 inc down pipe to 2.25 exaust
440 percison injectors with stock 92 civic fuel pump
I have been runing crome pro and boosting 9lb

I have recently upgraded to
Peekboost FTW ramhorn mani/ 3inch down pipe to 3 inch Kteller exaust
And a much larger t3/to4e .63 ar .57 trim

With my prevuios set up my injestors were operating around 90% duty cycle at high rpms.
And because my new setup will be moveing a lot more air I think this will be an issue. My hp #'s should be close to 300 hp. So will I be ok if I just add a new fuel pump? I am thinking that my stock one can not keep up. But I hav no way of really knowing this because I don't use a fuel presure gauge.
I was thinking about geting one of 255lph FP they onley cost $99. any ways. Let me know If this sounds right or can I just kkep my stock FP in there.
