Fuel pump help! I recently bought a car and its in houston 3 1/2 hours away and the car has a Aeromotive Pro Series 1450HP 11102 Fuel Pump (-12AN Fittings and Feed)
-10AN Stainless Braided Feed Line, -6 Return BUT it doesnt have a voltage controller.If i drive it back would it hurt the fuel pump???? Its a forced induction car.

It's a souped up A1000 I belive. If it went out from driving it 3.5 hours, it was on it's way out the door anyway. You should be totally fine.
Your alternator will have a voltage controller on it, so it's only going to see 13.5v, which it's rated at.

It should have an aeromotive controller on it, if so it should be fine. I got a1000 to install but it doesn't need the controller. From what I've read allot of people who have them really think high of them but its the installation that matter with these pumps. They need head pressure from the tank not to starve them of fuel and overheat. In your case it would be more of an issue but with the aftermarket controller it should be ok. If not install a fuel cooler and/or make sure that the installation was proper too.
Thats a mean pump and I might have to step up to it since my A1000 might not be able to do the job. Another thing I like about them is they are submersible. I got a custom sumped tank that its installed inside to aid in the cooling. Very nice setup but its not from a sponsor. Good luck, that car must be a monster with that pump on it.
