yeah ive heard stories like that and ive also heard stories that stat off like" so i was going to work and as soon as i hit 285 my fuel pump went out" so u can do it but if u have the money it would be a wise investment in case your stock one does go out, but yeah make sure u change ur fuel filter for sure. i'd recommend 440's as well thats what im running w/ less that 200 whp on my d-series just in case i ever get the urge to up the boost some
