Yea I took that chart and converted it to volumetric flow to use in my spreadsheet in the sticky thread in this section, which is where I got all my numbers. Its odd because most fuel pumps are rated in volume not mass, but its not a huge deal.
Yea you would run them in parallel, and if it were me I would hard wire one pump on, and have the controller mess with the second pump only.
A lot of injectors (and pumps) don't like being above a certain pressure (80psi is a popular limit). So if you can get away with a low rail pressure, like 40-50psi, then do that so you can stretch your fuel components to more boost.
I agree on using a better turbo for that...I wanted to try a GT5518 at one point, would be a pretty good match for what you are wanting I think.

Youll have to decide is it time for low impedence or pay huge money for ID2000s
If you have holley then the low impedence is a no brainer
At that point you have
Billet atomizers
Holley injectors
Siemens
Bosch
My 225s were far cheaper then ID2000s even with me buying a driver

The GT5518 is a huge turbo for a 408, you will be quite fine with a 1.0 to 1.24 housing unless you plan to spin it to 8000rpm. I think using a 1.4 housing will just make it laggier than you need. I would personally start with the 1.0 housing.
