exxactly
i would rather not completely redo the pump set up and supply configuration to save the guy cash.. if i had a good controller thats all i would need and i could sell this one he had.
3 inline walbros would only set me back maybe 400 bux start to finish of the change over though.. and i could kick the second two on by the dfi box... hmm

i'm lazy and haven't wired my hobbs switch so i just have two external walbros runnign full time off my sumped 98 tank.. one of the best things i've done since putting a blower on the car, the twin in tanks i had at first sucked my ***.

I dont understand ya there John...... it worked..... it was louder then then the exhaust but on a car you dont D/D or drive more then 10 times a YR....

I used the Aero controller with my A1000, and then with my dual Bosch setup for a while...
With both setups, I had problems with the crappy push on terminals for the pump, melting.
It would appear they werent making sufficiently good contact, and overheated/arced, and could have caused a fire.
Anyone else have similar problems ?
Im just running a plain dual Bosch in parallel, with both pumps running at all times. Simple, and it works for me. They make a little noise, installed in trunk under the tank, but once the engine is running, you cant hear them.
if Bosch pumps are good enough for OE fitment, reliability is not a concern. Ive been running them like that for over 6000 miles now, with a magnafuel regulator.
I also added a small oil ( fuel ) cooler on the return back to the tank, although its mounting location isnt ideal underneath the car.
