Default Setting up an inline pump on a corvette, voltage questions

So my current setup is a stock pump (2002 vette) with an MSD boostapump and i'm worried about fueling stabilitiy. I have a bosch 420a pump i'd like to install, how should i get power to it ? Should i put the stock pump back to the stock wiring/voltage and run the boostapump to the bosch? or get a second boostapump?

Run a 10g line from battery back to a 40a relay, then trigger the relay with the stock pump power.

The 420 pump might suck the stock pump dry at WOT.Keep an eye on fuel pressure.

Thumbs down

I don't think installing a pump of higher volume capacity, and having the OEM pump acting as a restriction, is a good idea...
But, that's just my opinion, and everyone knows what they are worth!!
