I ran a BAP on the stock pump for about 18 months with no probs. Supported 480rwhp and had more left in it. The wiring upgrade is a must. I just went to dual GT40 pumps, just replaced the stock pump with one and piggy backed on a second one in anticipation of upping the boost. Works great, plenty of fuel, and much cheaper than a gt500 system.

Heres a link to the wiring upgrade Lethal sells.

It's also worthwhile to run a 10ga wire from the fpdm to the pump. I have some instructions on it somewhere i can send you.

If your having issues with the stock pump already, i'd get them sorted out before adding abap. I never had problems with my stock pump. Not sure what trouble you are having with it. I think there is a tsb on the stock pump, not sure if its related to your issue.
