High Volume fuel pumps.

Are high volume pumps any benefit over an OEM pump? or is that mainly for carbed engines?

carbed engines use low pressure pumps in the 3-8 psi range and upgrading from stock psi will require a add-on fuel pressure regulator

fuel injection use high pressure pumps in the 30-80 psi range and all are controlled by the fuel pressure regulator

high volume pumps might last longer as they don't have to work as hard

if you are turboed, hf pump is a must, if std, dont waste the cash, the std merc pumps flow enough fuel for about 400 bhp if working correctly.

"some mods improve your car and make it into something it never was, other mods, however, although essentially the same, are not, and make that car a ricer"

if your car isnt shiny, you dont know what you are talking about, remember; paint shine = knowledge. In order to be taken seriously, you should spend all your money on paint, (and get a dyno reading).
Dont forget to polish it often

True !!!
But 400HP = 400HP be it NA or "Huffed"...

The stock twin pumps operating in parallel or the later single pump provide more then enough volume
