Hi 

 

I was in a similar situation a couple of years back. Most people were actually removing the main pump under the car and installing a high flow uprated in tank pump which apparently works well. But like you I didn't want to do that if you search online there are some direct replacement pumps (Bosch 044 I believe)  but depends what fuel pump (mk2 model) you started out with. I started out with an 8V digifant before I did my VR6 conversion and found that a company in the US did a nice upgrade link below. Don't know if they still do it also when I purchased it pound was a lot stronger so made sense.
