Default Plug and Play Fuel Pump

Boosting my 06 silverado soon (5.3) and Looking to push 450-520rwhp nothing more. 76mm turbo
Already got 60# Bosche injectors EV16 style.
Question is, Is there a FuelPump that'll just work without having to get a Hot wire kit or modifying the tank? Just replace the factory one without having to do any additional modifications to make it work?
If anyone knows please post a link to the pump or part number. Thanks.

I have a Racetronix 255lph drop in fuel pump. It may handle your needs but will be pushing it

You will want to at least upgrade the wiring...bigger pumps pull more current, something the small stock wiring really cant handle.

How does an aeromotive 340 pump center-inlet with this hot wire kit work? Will the pump drop right in without any modifying? And I dont know what type of fuel system I have (returnless, or non-returnless) What ever a non flexfuel 2006 silverado has.

Even with a hotwire kit you dont have to modify the factory wiring.
