JMS BAP Install?
Just wondering if anyone has installed a JMS BAP in a C7? If so, can you point out pros and cons of install and results? Found an install on a 16 Camaro but trunk layout is considerably different.

There is quite a bit of discussion on line and even a youtube video. Search Google with this phrase "JMS install site:camaro6.com".
While the install itself isn't identical to the Corvette, the settings, tuning and wiring are the same. The only difference is that the Corvettes FPCM is located in the driver side rear wheel well. You need to remove the rear wheel and pull the liner down to gain access. Everything is straight forward from there. If you don't have any wiring experience then this install may not be for you. There is also an option to trace the power feed wire to the fuel pump from the FPCM harness to the fuse block in the trunk of the C7 and splice the JMS in there. The only negative that I saw was due to the additional resistance of the longer travel on the wire, the final voltage to the Fuel Pump was slightly lower resulting in ~ 76 PSI when I was commanding 81 PSI on the low side. But this isn't an issue, 76psi is plenty of low side pressure to keep the high side pump full.
