It seems that he doesn't know where the problem is and looking to change all the parts to eliminate the problem. if it what cheap, I would go for it with no problems but these parts are big on $.

Already got the fuel pump, so what to do now?

Thanks

First, get the fuel pressure tested (takes about 5 min.). I would not be purchasing the other items as some of them are not even related to fuel pressure, but I would be shopping around for a new mechanic that understands Porsches......
