no amp. you need to run a relay

power wire directly from your battery. ground it nearby. and use the stock fuel pump wires as a signal to unlatch the relays ( make it work)

we run the + wires to a snow plowing solenoid up front then get power to the solenoid from the alternator and take the main relay fuel pump signal wire to the solenoid and that would activate the pumps when the ignition kicks in

the relay needs a switched input to send power.

There are 4poles onn your relay,
Ground to chassis
Power in from battery
Power out to pump
Switched power stock fuel pump positive wire

Some guys use snow plow solenoids. Alot of nitous guys use starter solenoids for the nitrous and fuel solenoids. Very effective and durable. The little relays dont hold enough amps.

BOSCH RELAYS HOLD plenty of amperage.

X2. They're rated for 30A. I always order them from Parts Express, with the sockets. Relays are $2.89, sockets are $1.75.

Main reason im running the 2 pumps is get the pressure need to run the new saturated bosch injectors to flow properly and meet my WHP goal.

Hook them up according to the chart above, dont make more out of it than necessary. I have my Inline 255hp and my Intank 255hp hooked up exactly like that chart with 2 Bosch Relays wired with fuses right off the battery, or you could use the alternator output w/e is easier for you.
