Default Walbro 255lph Fuel Pump into a 99?

I've googled this, found a few threads on NAXJA & JeepForum but they are either unfinished or pertaining to 95 and older XJs with a return line.

Basically, I have a Walbro 255lbh fuel pump that I intended to use in my Subaru. That car is living in Knoxville with my parents as of late and I'm here in Miami with the XJ and I've been thinking - I could swap this fuel pump in and breathe some newfound oomph into the old girl.

My question is will this pump be too much for a stock 4.0? Also, is it even possible considering the 99 is a returnless fuel system?

No. You may overwhelm the system and run pig rich.

Bummer.

I have to admit though, you said "may"...

Oh well. I'll just give this thing to the Subaru and shoot fire even more.
