Run it str8 to the battery with a relay and have it come on only when the car turns on.

depends on where you want to mount the relay. If you mount it in the back grab the reference from the same wire that turns on the other pump. If you want to put the relay in the engine compartment then grab the reference at the fuel pump relay. and if you are looking for wire colors you might have to provide vehicle information FYI.
