There ya go, you've found your problem! Now to fix it. Remove the pump and see what volume it free flows. If it's about the same amount, replace it. If it flows more like a little garden hose, look for a restriction in the tank or a kink in one of the hoses.

Even a modest 200 hp engine at a reasonable BSFC of 0.5 is gonna need 15 gph fuel flow just to make the power. Your fuel system should flow a LOT more than that, just to keep the carb bowls full on heavy acceleration.
