Re: (Jimmy)
ya if you can control yourself and not drive above 2500 rpm you MIGHT be safe assuming you don't spool be then. but i would not take the chance either. a lean condition could cost you big bucks and is def. not worth it!

The only irrational moron here seems to be you, grow some chest hair and try to talk to people without being offensive.
My answer fits the title of the thread accordingly, please read it again a couple of times; youll see.
Nowhere in this thread he said he's running an FMU which im assuming that's what your referring to; that would be the only way you could correlate fuel pump with ''tune''.
If not, please explain....
If that's the case, it would be wise for in the pumps and injectors sake to sell the fmu and with that money get your ecu chipped for boost.

Hm..
It's not really ideal to run a boosted car with a stock fuel pump.
Period.
