Since the TRD supercharger delivers a lot more CFM to the engine over stock, and since others have tested and proven the stock fuel pump to be inadequate, I've upgraded the fuel pump to a Walbro 190 lph. I raised the bed, letting my engine hoist do the heavy lifting. That gave me access to the fuel pump bracket. I removed the fuel pump bracket. Here it is with the stock pump. And here is the Walbro 190 lph kit. I soldered the old and new wiring harnesses together, then protected the joints with heat shrink tubing. The Walbro pump is a bit taller than the stock pump, so with a tube cutter I shortened the fuel delivery pipe about 1/4". (Sorry, no picture.) Then I mounted the Walbro onto the bracket. I reinstalled the bracket to the fuel tank, and the engine fired right up and ran smoothly. Next up .... some maintenance.
