Not sure about the VT,but in the vr/vs you can fit a Walbro 550HP (255LPH)is available. Good for around 450rwhp ish.
Way too small if your using 60lb injectors OK up to 42 lb or less
Its possible to fit a Bosch 044 inline with the original pump 600-700HP (300LPH) if you dont want/need a swirl pot/surge tank.

Otherwise as dave says swirl pot and a 044
Ive been researching my current setup if i do a boost upgrade, the last thing you want to do is skimp on your fuel system, run lean and bye byer engine (melted pistons)

Cheers for the advise...

My current set up is standard in tank fuel pump then to a vortex in line pump that kicks in when the supercharge goes into boost and then to the ****ty capa 24 pound injectors.

I had my car to Alan Gibbs this week and he advised to get rid of the second fuel pump go the biggest in tank fuel pump you can get and 60 pound injectors.

At the moment im so confused as to what to do it not funny hey so any advise would be awesome

How much rwhp or flywheel horsepower are you looking at with your setup ?,the 60lb injectors at 3 bar fuel pressure will require approx 360lph of fuel flow, an 044 delivers 300lph. intank pump 255lph.
You normally size your injectors so they run at or near a max of 80% duty
 Doesnt sound like you tuner knows basic fuel requirements to me ?
Ebay is a good place to buy. I bought my Bosch 42lb injectors from the USA, nearly 1/3 of the cost of buying here in oz. Fuel pumps cheaper too but be sure you get genuine Bosch, etc and not chinese crappy copies !!!!!

Im running the walbro fuel pump same as danas (550hp in tank) and 42lb Lucas injectors. the fuel pump was around $160 ( i THINK) and the injectors were $500 from justin @ BYE performance. My car was also tuned by Al on BYE's dyno.

Justin offered me the 60lb injectors (for around $600 i THINK) but i just went with the 42's
