FMU + stock fuel pump = new motor.

You might get away with it for a little while, but it'll catch up to you sooner or later when your pump quits while trying to flow fuel at 100psi of rail pressure.

So should you put an inline pump in or should you put a bigger pump in your tank. I heard that at low PSI (like 6) you need an FMU, but the stock internals and fuel would handel the load.
