Guys, I'm not too strong on the Opel FI, but on my V-6, there is a pressure regulator on the fuel rail that limits the pressure and dumps excess back to the fuel tank. I believe there is a similar system on the Opel FI, but don't quote me on that. That being said and if it does work that way, check out the fuel pump book at your local auto parts store. I picked up a 70 psi fuel pump that has 3 ports on the head, one for fuel out, one for fuel in and the third for pressure bypass, which also allows a continual amount of fuel to flow through the pump back to the tank to keep it cool. And don't forget to get a real good filter to keep the pump and injectors clean. HTH.
