Default fuel pump

I have a 2004 gt w/bolt ons + 100 shot. Next week i will be installing longtube headers, and when i am done i will take it back to my shop to have it thrown on the dyno to make sure everything is good. Since it will be on the dyno i was considering upgrading the fuel pump, and bumping up the shot a little. Injectors have already been upgraded (i'm running a dry kit). The car has a built in flip switch that allows me to change tunes on the fly.

My questions are as follows: What pump shoud i go with? Would there be any drivability or loss of power issues when running n/a? What would be a fair price for the install and dyno time?

My tuner tells me to bump the shot i need to upgrade the pump at this point. I'm not sold on the idea. It's just a thought considering it will be on the dyno anyway, and the pumps themselves are fairly cheap. Any info on this would be great. Thanks.

Go with the SVT focus 255lph pump. fairly cheap and is goes right in place of the old OEM one. As far as pricing goes for the install im really not sure i did mine myself its a fairly simple procedure.

Thanks man! Is it easy enough to where anyone can install one? Where is a good place to by one? Also do you know if it would change my n/a performance or drivability? I know nothing about these pumps, except that mine is maxed out with the nitrous.

it wont affect anything at all besides the fact that it supports more hp. I have a whole assembly for sale. just drop in the tank and go with 15k miles on it. $100
