Fuel Pump and H/W question

Hey guys, i'm starting to modify my Grand National. Its a 1987 and is currently bone stock besides 3 VDO gauges (boost, oil pres. and water temp) and a 160* thermostat. So i figured that the fuel pump and hotwire kit is the best early modification because the stock pump does not provide adequate fuel.

My question is: Which fuel pump!? I only plan to run this car mid 12's, possibly a little faster, but never quite into the 11's. It will be street driven with a good amount of track use but more importantly it will be a daily driver. Also, I do plan to build this car on a budget, so what would best suit this car?

Also, should i be buyin an AFPR at the same time? If so, judging by what I'm going to use the car for, which one. And techinally, I do not need a billet shiny chrome piece, just something that works and is accurate.

Thanks and sorry for the long post, Joe
