Default Is my racetronix walbro fuel pump DOA?

Just checking out the wiring on my car and getting ready to try and get it running, but no fuel pressure or noise from pump. I have the racetronix walbro kit w/their upgraded wire & relay. I have 5v on the purple wire when key is on, and a good ground, and when I engage the clutch and turn on the key the red wire gives me 12v for a few seconds which is what I expect (don't have vats deleted on ECM yet). I thought this should be enough to spin up the pump, but nothing. Is my pump DOA or do I have to delete vats before I can get any fuel pressure?

Thx!

Posted a note on Racetronix forum; hopefully they'll have something to tell me.

Turns out I had a connector on backwards internal to the pump; ended up moving the terminals to get them in the correct location and I now have a working fuel pump and ~ 58 psi at the rail. On to the next fight!

Edit; should say racetronix was helpful and on their internal site all afternoon; helpful on a Sunday.
