Default best fuel pump to replace the stocker?

just kinda wanted to see what everyone thought. my pump is very weak like 27 psi so soon i will replace it. i will not be going with a stock pump unless some one has one for dirt cheap locally lol. but ebay is confusing and im not sure which one to go with and im not going to be buying the expensive ones. under $100 only... if you got something dumb to say move along and stfu no time for school girls or over privleged rich kids lol

If the engine is basically stock, there is nothing wrong with using a real OEM pump, considerin the original has been working for over 100K miles. Have you replaced the fuel filter lately? Have you tested the pressure regulator? A bad regulator bypassing too much fuel will make the fuel pressure low. IMO E-Bay is not the best place to buy car parts, unless you enjoy doing the same work over and over.
