Anyone with an Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump?

Just wondering if anyone has been able to use this pump on the stock harness? I'm running into a problem that the pump isn't getting enough power. Just wanted to see if anyone's got it working before I re-run a new direct wire.

I've always ran a new power wire and quality relay when using the A-1000.

I'm actually thinking about using one on the evo, i just have to think if the horrible whine is worth it in my dd.

I use the stock wiring to open a relay. The power wire goes from the battery to the relay then to the pump. The ground is the same bolt that I have the A-1000 mounted with.

It's an external pump.

Well I got off my lazy *** and got it wired up last night. I used a 40amp relay, the stock wiring to power the relay, and 10ga direct feed from the battery to power the pump. Works good.

Run a new power wire and use a relay, use the stock wires to trigger the relay.

I am assuming the external pump is placed in-line and runs full-time?
