Okay, I've searched but didn't really find anything.

Hey guys, I've done some searching but I still haven't been able to find the best place to mount an inline pump. I'm just wondering, should it be situated before or after the fuel filter? I was told that I could mount it in back closer to the fuel tank but I'm kinda hesitant to cut the hard lines back there! Anyway, any advice would be great! As well, what power source is the best to hook it up to? I was told that I should hook it up to the same source as the stock fuel pump so if I have my car turned to the run position but the engine is running, I wouldn't burn out my pump or something like that! Thanks again!

I have a turbo, so I removed the IAB and associated equipment. I installed my inline fuel pump under the intake manifold so I wouldn't hear the vibration it makes. I had it between the brake and clutch reservoirs using the windshield wiper relay mount to mount the pump in a rubber pipe coupler.

For wiring it, use the oem fuel pump positive to the coil of a standard relay and ground the other end of the coil. Get a positive supply from the fuse box to the relay and out to the fuel pump. Ground the pump to the chasis. Now you have a fuel pump that won't overload the main relay.....enjoy....

So could do u have any other instructions that would help me install my fuel pump. I know where it should go, the soft line after the fuel filter right? Cuz right after the fuel filter, there is a hard line and then a fitting that goes into a soft line and then back into a hard line and then it goes towards the fuel rail. Should I cut into that soft line or can I undo those fittings on either end of it? As well, I'm not to clear on the way that u r hooking up the electrical portion of the fuel pump. I looked in the fuse bos in the engine bay and there is no fuel pump fuse. And what exactly will the relay do? Will it shut off when the car is not on or what? Thanks again, I do appreciate the help! Oh yah, I think I may have asked this before, but will adding the fuel pump and fmu affect my stock idle seeing that I haven't added the turbo yet? Thanks again
