Default MSD Fuel Pump Booster

Hey guys, I've searched and have not come up with a definitive answer to my question. Can you run an MSD Fuel Pump Booster on a stock '99 fuel system? Install time? I appreciate any input. Thanks.

yes you can..but it would be better to upgrade your fuel pump first..They run the same price as the MSD booster. Install for the MSD should take a good mechanic about 2 hours..

I don't see any reason to upgrade the pump unless it's not working as expected. More than a few folks have upgraded a perfectly good pump, and ended up with problems. You can always replace the pump if needed, it's not like any additional work would be required.

I highly recommend the Kenne Bell boost a pump along with the Racetronix harness, makes things very clean and simple.

Everyone has recommended a racetronix harness. How intensive is the install? Thanks for the input thus far.

Easier than hacking the stock harness

I thought the install was about as simple as could be. Everything is plug and play with the exception of crimping the connectors onto the BAP.



Got mine from Thunder Racing.
