A better fuel pump is what im doing now...

EWP is always a place for a bit more power. I'd say your best bet is a dyno tune.

The electric water pump is a great dyno proven mod. As for the fuel pump, unless your stock pump is going south, it probably isn't necessary. The Racetronix 255lph pump is a drop in unit that is a good upgrade over the stocker and it runs around 140 bucks.

With the mods you have listed (you don't list larger injectors), the stock fuel pump should be fine. And an electric water pump isn't something you HAVE to do.... its optional. Many of us have chosen to keep the stock water pump on fairly high HP applications.
