did you just connect a line from the tank outlet to the aeromotive pump or did you use the in-tank pump as a feed pump to the aeromotive?

I plumbed off the back of the saddles. The in-tank pump has been removed.

I could if you'd like.

The intank pump is gone. The red thing after the pump is the fuel filter.

My fuel setup goes as follows.

I plumbed off the backs of the saddles. I choose to keep the stock tank so that I'm not put into a different class if I choose to race.


Both these feeds connect to a Y block that then feeds into the pump.


The pump feeds into a fuel filter


The filter connects to a -8 line which feeds directly to the fuel rail feeding 95# injectimicators. The pressure is built using an SX FPR.




After the FPR, the fuel is sent back to the pump via a -6 line. The fuel returns to the tank via the stock fuel pump OUTLET.

Tossing the tank will save some weight but it isnt all that much. It does clean up under the car alot though

Here is my setup:

Yea, I think mine was more than that once you include the rail and fpr.

But the good news is I won't have to touch it anymore

I didnt get any for my car but we did use some on a DSM we did an install on and it was much quieter. Honestly now with my exhaust and everything else I dont really care about the pump noise

Yea, I'm not super worried about the sound either, but I prefer exhaust over fuel pump.

Oh, and btw, my exhaust is LOUD LOL!!!

As a side note. I have a complete fuel cell and fuel system here with the A1000 pump and filter. All the lines, fittings etc. The fuel cell is a black 12 or 15 gallon cell. I'd like to sell it all. $1,000, complete.
