Thanks for sending them. I think pictures are worth 10,000 words. I do not use the performace boost pumps I have a Dukes and the engine driven one. My installation is in the same location but takes up a little less room. I do have a couple of comments. It looks like you are using hose and hose clamps on what apears to be the high pressure side, it has the pressure sender. I think that is a bad idea. I would keep the pump hard piped, tubed and use tubing with An fittings to go the air flow sensor. In fact I would keep all the fuel system tubing, pipe or AN hose. Second and I could not see for sure but it looks like the pumps are wired in parrallel to the same circuit. If so the system is not redundant. A single dead wire and no fuel to the engine. Finally if there is an engine dirven pump, probably not looks like an auto conversion, the pressure sensor need to go on the inlet line to the air sensor. That is where the pressure counts. Agian thanks for the pictures. Ignore my comments if I am all wet.
