The pump you have will be adequate if you add a "Boost-a-Pump" or similar device to increase voltage to the pump when under boost.

In the example mentioned, the injectors are going to be too small. But with enough injector, a 255lph in-tank with enough voltage (through use of a voltage booster) will be good to near 700rwph (with an M6).

I did (2) walbro 255lph in-tank pumps (FI 383 M6). I re-designed the fuel pump unit bracket/ bulk-head plate, and, assembled pumps over/ under. The feature I wanted was easy in-out assembly to the fuel tank. I also have a KB BAP on pump #1. Re-plumb of the stock delivery line helped alot. I decided to go thru the rear floor pan with the "access door" application. Pump #1 & #2 are run off the fuel pump relay with pump #2 having a driver seat on/ off switch with another painless fuel relay.
