Whew, Ok. I would recommend larger injectors, but if you have a tuned ecu, you might be able to get away with the stockers at 7pounds. But you said an ecu "chip" and Iam not surewhat that means. You won't find many tuned cars on the stockers. Personally I would still get the 255 fuel pump and a adj. fpr would help. FMU's just boost fuel pressure with manifold pressure and are quite unreliable. If you are inclined, I would suggest trying Uber or Crome to actually tune it or if you have the money, Hondata and some dyno time.

Do I practice what I preach? Hell no, I have 450cc injectors, a 255lph fuel pump, through the stock fpr running 8psi on a blind tune. But do as I say, not as I do.

Tune or be tuned with turboedit.

DSM 450s and a resistor box are cheap, Walbro 255lhp is a cheap and wonderful mod, stock FPR, lines, and fuel rail are plenty for 7psi.

That's all you'll need, and don't do it any other way.
