Fuel pump fun..

Fuel pump fun..
So finally got a Baby free night - took the wife out (about 50mi away) and when we came back to the car - no start, was turning over and ocasionally firing but wouldn't get started (it was raining too and we were parked in the ghetto - fun). Last time I had a timing issue I installed a fuel pressure gauge in the engine bay - looked and no pressure (disconnected a fuel line, had wife turn on ignition and no fire hose so.. Well at least I know where the problem is - had the car towed home (50 miles = ouch $). Searched around and local rice shop stocks Walboro pumps (cool so may be able to drive the car next week).
They only cary the 255 and only in HP so I guess I'll be seeing how well this works - I've seen alot of notes here that the 255HP is massive overkill but its the only thing available locally and I need the car next week (running 550's anyway) soo should be good to go ? Will be puttin it in tomorrow.

I'm hoping to avoid map editing again.. but easy if I'm just adjusting entire map guess we'll see. I'm a bit confused on the fuel return/returnless system - my friend's teelin me to cap off the fuel return on the pump ? - the pump has an outlet on top (near plug) and inlet at the bottom for the filter. This is for '00 and I've been told '00 is returnless - the pump is the GSS342 255HP(but model for a civic of course - but then again it's generic so doesn't matter and I don't see a return connection on it ?).
