Is your wiring still intact? hows the shielding holding up? |
here is a good thread on the subject:

Car hasn't burned down. I haven't even touched anything in the fuel tank in over three years. I am still using that 8 gauge wire sold for audio applications. I have not maxed out my Supra pump yet... currently running 17psi on a T04R turbo. With 43.5psi base pressure I am at 85% injector duty cycle with 720/1680.

Good read, will look at doing this soon. Should be good with the battery in the back almost on top of the fuel pump :D
If I went to a Walbro fuel pump (GSS340/GSS341) would I have to mess around with the in tank wiring? |

Oh and my buddy who originally helped me with this install had to one-up me and ran 4 gauge to the pump in his GMC Syclone setup.
I'm glad there have been no issues with your setup. But have you pulled the pump flange to check the condition of the wires? |

Is this a 2000HP drag truck? I can't fathom a big enough electrical fuel pump to necessitate 4 gauge wire.

I'm thinking about checking mine soon. That's a good idea...
|
so if i have an s4 na they dont have a fuel pump resistor i turbo swapped it with a s5 engine and s4 tii engine harness. i am running a rtek 2.1 so can i use how you rewired your fuel pump or do i have to find a different way to rewire it.
|
You can rewire... You just don't need to bypass the fuel pump relay and resistor, because you don't have them. (Same as me.) - I opted for thicker, better quality wiring.
|
too much work for the series 4 bulkhead connector pump housing. these are already the most bulletproof for electrical issues with the pump. all you need is to be sure the electrical wiring running up to and inside the tank is sufficient.

With that gauge of your "bought wire" relay will be the weak link (assuming you bought a chinese 30 Amp Relay) All components in your wiring must be matched or else your setup is only as good as it' "weakest link"

I could probably buy a better quality relay.

sorry for the double post. I "one-upped" my first post bahaha
|
the title of the thread states that. my point was making passthrough holes right next to the bulkhead connectors which the brass is as thick as the 8gauge cable even.
|
OLD post but wanted to add that i've had my pump rewired and wired in the tank with 12 gauge autozone wire and its been great for about 2 years now.
