I've had three different brands in the last 9 years. The first two lasted maybe two years each.
Purchase a KB (Kenny Bell) bap. Rarely if ever have I seen one fail that was wired correctly. My KB bap is over five years old and has been flawless. Great company/customer service as well if you ever need to call them for tech support.

Instead of just over working the OEM pump with a BAP to wear it out faster, if you change out the pump in the tank to the correct output size to begin with, going to be less problems in the long run instead.
Hence with NOS, it not IF, but WHEN you are going to have problems to blow a motor, and no reason to just throw another monkey wrench in the tire spokes to have the problem sooner instead.

A properly installed KB BAP will rarely if ever give problems and not hurt the pump. Install it using a ractronix harness and you will be good to go.
Mine has been fine for 4 years now and I know many people running then with no issues.

may be in the future I'll think about a complete fuel system
and spraying 150 with BAP support I think it's not that risky

I don't know any body who had a pump go bad as a result of KB boost a pump and else the Racetronix harness is unnecessary as the pump feeds directly from the battery to increase the juice to the pump and comes with all necessary top notch hardware.
