Default MSD Boost-a-pump (BAP) for a C6?

I ordered a MSD BAP (2350) for my C6 and had a buddy of mine tell me that he's had 3 of them burn up the fuel pumps on a C6. Now I'm worried. He recommended the Kenne Bell unit and I asked he what the difference was and he stated that the KB was adjustable. I know that it has a remote ****, but the MSD is also adjustable, but at the unit itself.

Anyhow, is the MSD unit reliable, particularly on a C6?

Anyone?

I would particularly like to know on a C6, but any input on it would be helpful because it's a universal unit.

Many of my customers that are now converting to my dual pump setup are reporting they had pump failures on the C6's when using voltage boosters. The Pontiac G8 is also one reported to have a lot of failures.

I think I will add second pump. How would I wire up 2nd pp to get extra voltage like 1st pump?
