Default BAP instructions..................

Would any of you guys have the instructions for installing a Boosta Pump lying around that I could use Please?

My tuner told me that they hooked my BAP up using the Hobbs switch, but I'm almost positive that they fibbed me. I've got 70 lbs. of fuel pressure at idle with the controller turned all the way down. Does this sound like a pressure switch operated install to you Guys?

Thanks in Advance!

Need more details.

Do you also have the Racetronix harness?

I see 62-63psi cold idle with the harness.

Have you checked with a mechanical gauge?

Hi Tony!

Yes I have the RaceTronix harness. Is your BAP wired to run all of the time or just under boost? No, I haven't checked it with a mechanical gauge, but I might give that a try.

Thanks!

Some things to consider. With the Racetronix harness, you are now getting full alternator output at ALL times. The result in my case is 4-5 psi higher pressure.

If you have the harness, you can simply bypass the BAP for comparison.

BAP should only run under boost. Look for the hobbs switch somwhere near the brake booster area. It needs a vacuum source to function, so you should be able to find it fairly easily.

The mechanical gauge will tell you if the electric on is lying
