Fuel pump Bosch or OEM Volkswagen
Too many fuel pumps die because of people upgrading the pump with has more amperage but they don't upgrade the fuel pump wires to handle that extra heat. Your setup still seems pretty mild so maybe you don't need to replace your wires but can just run a Bosch 044 like everyone else (including me) has tested tried and true with 660cc Siemens injectors.
It was a Bosch OEM pump in a Bosch box so I think it should be okay.
Spend for the Denso. Denso is the OEM for
Motorcraft. Bosch are good too.
I had the fuel pump go on me and replaced it with a Bosch original OEM that has the threaded Check Valve screwed into the top of it. Upon replacing these 2 parts the engine would run great and start fine cold.
I\u2019ve run a digi 2 intank with a Bosch 044 high pressure inline without any problems
If you find old stock New Bosch fuel pump the VDO OEM comes inside the Bosch packaging. It will say Made in Germany on box and the fuel pump assembly.
High pressure fuel pump sometimes will give up. Sometimes! It is not regular issue. 30min DIY job!

I've only had one warranty issue, a fuel pump was acting up. Didn't strand me or anything but was causing a rough idle due to cuting out one time. Restarted the car and it was fine, took it to the dealer anyway and they replaced all the fuel pumps under warranty.
My father-in-law bought a fuel $10 pump for his Honda Accord that came in a Bosch box and the mechanic told him that it was counterfeit but it was the only one available. He used that fuel pump and it broke in 2 days
I tried a Carter, and a Delphi. Both failed (after I topped off the tank) and I had to tow it home, drop a full tank, and do it over. The Bosch hasnt let me down these past 7 years.
