Default fuel setup for turbo civic??

I was wondering what the difference is between using an additional inline fuel pump to add extra gas or using a replacement in-tank fuel pump for a 2000 civic ex?? Is the intake pump better? Also I know a guy with a 2000 civic si fuel pump and thought maybe that pump would add the extra fuel needed for boosted conditions. Is that true?? I know the si eats more gas than the ex so I figured maybe it would work.

intank are fine with upgraded injectors

depends on the rest of your set-up. either way you go intank is better then inline imo.
No the si pump will not provide more fuel then the ex pump, i believe they are the same pumps. I know my civic dx has the same pump as the teg...well at least thats the pump thats i my car (255lph holley for 95 gs-r)

I am going to be running a warblo 255 with fmu for a couple days. Should I hook up my new rev-hard inline pump as well till I get my injectors? I hope not cause I want to sell the rev-hard pump new and I dont want it to seize up if I have to take off! Its just the reg 255 not the HP255.

I used to run an inline and it worked great for awhile. Then it crapped out on me. I was chasing around tring to figure up which pump went out. I now use a intank 255 Wal with no probs so far. G/L
