You will be fine with the stock FPR, but an adjustable one is a good upgrade.

No, it should run the same if it was running fine before. The 4 banger pump is the same as the 5.0 pump 88lph.

I know, I was just saying that the 4 banger and the 8 banger had the same pump. There should be no difference in performance

Only if your stock pump was going bad and your engine was not getting adequate fuel. If it was running fine, then you will not see any performance gains from the fuel pump. You could possibly see SOME performance if you change the fuel pressure around a little, but you need to know what you are doing and what to look for.
