Just a quick question please....i am doing a m30 conversion to my 325i, i was informed of some bull about the injectors being high impedence hence the fuel pump has to be of low impedence hence the engine will cackle,this however doesnt sits well with me so i am seeking some advice on the suggested fuel pump i should be using on my m30 engine,thanks in advance

Sounds like a load of toss to me. There are injectors of varying impedances out there, but I've never heard of the fuel pump impedance ever being an issue.
