Default fuel help

so i got my whole ECS S/C kit installed over the weekend..for the fuel i have a fuel 100 psi fuel gauge and boost gauge, i installed my racetronx c5/6 fuel hot wire kit , do i install my BAP up front where the ECS instructions say it goes along with the hotwire kit or just one of the kits/? hope that makes sense

I installed mine in front of the driver side rear tire inside the wheel lining.

that is what i have read something to do with the electric being closer to the fuel pump which makes sense..but is having a hot wire kit along with the BAP to much ?

I have a racetronix pump/harness and 40a kenne bell bap and that is supporting over 700rwhp, I also have a meth kit... I bought the harness that has the bap wiring integrated into it so it's all plug and play and is mounted in the driver rear wheel well... the hotwire kit just makes sure you get proper voltage at the pump and the bap will boost voltage to the pump only under "x" amount of boost, however the hobbs switch is set up... there is also a controller to limit the voltage boost but I cut and looped the controller wires together so I get full voltage boost when it's on

Hey neutron82 would you mind me asking what pump you are running to satisfy 700 hp? I have my DS tank out now and am installing a GM C6 z06 pump while the tank is out to replace the stock '04 z06 pump.
