you should and i say should very lightly be fine. However Walboro offers an intake fuel pump for close to 100$ spend the extra $$

For the most part, you should be fine. You may need to add an aftermarket FPR, but it depends on how it runs. I guess the question should be, what is the purpose of the 440cc injectors? If the engine is stock you're wasting money and gas.

That isn't necessarily the case. I installed 440cc injectors on my brother's '95 GSR with a greddy turbo kit. He's running the stock pump up to 10psi along with a Hondata ECU with no fuel problems.

no, they wont really have a use for now, unless you want to run overly rich and idle like crap.
like it is you prolly have a bunch left on your stock injector duty cycle

I had once read, probably on Zdyne's webiste, that the stock GSR pump actually flows more than those found on DSM's...so it's a good strong pump for decent FI setups.

Definitely! You'll have raw fuel coming out of the exhaust with your setup. Once you get the SC, then you can think about the 440cc injectors.

10 psi on a B18C1 running a small 18G? No, he's not even close to the 300 whp where everything starts getting iffy with that setup. Some of the tubular manifold SC61 combos make 300 whp at or before 10 psi, that's working to fuel pump to death.
