Default SHURflo pump?

is a SHURflow 60psi/1.8gpm a good enough pump for meth injection? I know 100psi is better but this pump is probobly much better than a darn windshield washer pump. anyone have feedback on this pump or simular pressure?

all you have to do is bypass the pressure switch. There is a red wire going directly into the pump from the controller. Snip that and hook it directly to the switched power source. The pressure will be much higher then. I'd say about 140 psi out of the standard pump and 200-220 out of the big, high pressure pump. I run the 100psi 8000 series pump.

is that a reliable mod to do? is it gonna over work the pumps motor? sounds to good to be true! Im gonna go to a local RV shop tommarow and see what styles and brands they have and maybe i'll pick one up. Thanks!
