Default BAP Blown Fuse

Hey everyone, I’ve been seeing a few threads related to this issue but can’t seem to pin point the issue. I have a BAP hooked up with a 30amp in-line fuse on my centrifugal supercharged vette. It has now popped twice, under WOT when dig racing. The first time I rechecked all connections and cleaned up grounds. Now it has popped again. Any thoughts on what could cause this? Should I just throw a 40amp in there?

BAP may be going bad. blowing a 30a fuse is pretty major. I wouldn't try putting a 40 amp in there. may literally burn your car down.

We typically use 30amp inline to the BAP, and also change the stock fuel pump fuse underhood to a 30amp. Just make sure you have good crimps and cleaned the paint off for the ground connection.

I have an extra racetronix hotwire kit if you’re interested. Kept blowing my fuel pump fuse with the BAP and haven’t gad the issue since. OEM fuel system wiring on these cars suck ime.

I already have the racetronix hotwire kit installed on the car. I've gone over everything from connections to ground and everything seems to be in order. Thanks for the suggestions guys, I'm just going to ditch this whole fuel set up as a whole and swapping to a new one.
