Phil,
Sorry it took so long to respond...Vacation.
Anyway, the folks at LPE said to cut off the reostat and solder the wire so that when the pump comes on at 3lbs of boost, the pump runs wide open. Several sources at the time said that it was OK to do that. Cleaner install that way. So far, so good.

I had it tuned at 75%.

If it's a hot day or I hear any ping, I crank it to 100%.
