044 pump, good condition wiring and hosing, and big enough injectors.
And that's about it.

I've got a facet red top lift pump feeding a 1.5ltr swirl pot and 044 fuel pump. That pump that Mark mentions may be a good option for me. I wonder if I'd have to upgrade lift pump?

Thanks Paul, that's another thing I`ll be buying then. I wonder if that`s why I melted a piston!?

The pump you require depends on the boost you run. At 2.5bar your pump will need to be efficient at 2.5 + 3.5 bar = 87psi. Most are out of puff at this. Also the fuel you use is mega important the bsfc of pump is .6 change to Methanol & its 1.2 meaning twice the fuel needs to be pumped Race Fuel is around .9 meaning 50% more required. This is a subject I have studied. I was going to write a tech article on Pump/Injector choice at high boost its very interesting.
