Does anyone use an external fuel pump triggered via boost?
I can trigger my pump to kick in at 2PSI, stock pump WILL most definitely run out at 4.5PSI.
Wondering if I will have any fuel starvation issues till the secondary pump kicks in, given that boost build-up on the twin turbo set-up will be LIGHTING fast.
As a remedy, I thought of wiring an MSD window switch at 3000RPMs, is this necessary?
Thanks.

This just came to mind, are you using them on SC'ed or TT vettes? This should work fine on centrifugal systems where boost is linear. I hope you meant TT.
Thanks!
Hope to hear other opinions on this as well
