Fuel Pressure Question

I have a question about what fuel pressure the factory pump should be able to sustain. I built an adjustable regulator for my 92, I set the pressure at 50 and after 10-15 miles the pump started screaming and the car shut off. Not having any tools, I limped the car home and reajusted it back to stock and all is well for now. I am assuming the pump is just old and not able to keep up. Secondly what aftermarket in tank fuel pumps are you guys using? Are any of them more reliable then the next? If I am changing it I might as well upgrade it. Thanks for any feed back you might offer. I posted this in two forums, I was not sure which to post it in. Sorry.

Joe

Thanks, that's what I am going to do. For the $$ the 255 is well worth it.

Thanks
