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

Just take it to any actual Porsche dealer for a quote on fixing the problem. Then take it whereever you want. Let them actually diagnose it correctly.
