I'm using the standard sti pump on my newage or I think its the standard pump and have no issues, running close to 7 bar on cold startup going to ariund 2.5bar on hot idle and 5-6 bar on bost.
I have heard the larger flow pumps can cause issues by taking the oil from the sump faster than it drains back in which can cause starvation.

I had a new Subaru oil pump from the wrx sti 13 on my classic running 400bhp
and was amazing. Held 3.5bar when hot idle and never had a fault. Was a mate
who sorts me car out who told me about them and they not bad price

I got all my bits from import car parts mate, they were much cheaper than advanced automotive, they were the cheapest on the cam belt kits too, i got the full kit for £160, if youre buying a few bits them you're better off phoning them as i got a few quid knocked off when i bought my forged build kit.

according to this thread my avcs engine will have a 12mm as standard so surely i will need to replace it with a 12mm one?

Unless your car is quad avc's 2.0 JDM engine, thats the only engine from the factory with a 12mm pump, which is still over the top for what the engine requires, twin avc's usually has a 10mm pump, on the odd occasion a 11mm which is more than enough, if your going to be running oe bearing tolerences.
