Default Boost a pump

What is involved with the install? I saw that it can be mounted in the eng compartment. Is it simply a power plus 2 wires not counting the control ****?

Spin if it's like the Magna Volt there are 5 wires and a vaccume hose.
Red hot, Black ground, Gray, White, fuel pump relays, and yellow goes to the intercooler water pump. It's supposed to supply more voltage to the fuel pumps under booste conditions to make more fuel pressure as directed by vaccume.

Spin,
do yourself a favor. Cut off the rheostat and connect the two wires together so you get the full 50% increase whenever you're in boost. Then all you have to do is wire the BAP into the grey wire for your fuel pump circuit, and run the 2 wires for the PSI switch.

I have a diagram, PM me if you want a copy.
