need a mod list.

How many miles on engine and have you checked the timing belt? I know its a silly question but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Also have you checked compression?

Do you have a wideband installed on the car. that would've helped give you an idea of pump failure as you would've ran terribly lean. IF you did run lean I suspect you did more damage then just taking out the fuel pump

IIRC, I've read some threads saying that the gas gauge may be inaccurate after adding a Turbo setup. You might want to try adding some gas.
