here i go AGAIN
an fmu requires high amounts of fuel pressure to properly operate in its designed fashion. An intank pump wont provide enough fuel pressure to adequetly operate the FMU. I know there are going to be people poping up now saying " i have been running an intank and 12:1 fmu for 87 years with no problems" well i just want you to know that you cant allways hear detonation. I hate this conversation, flame me if you must.......

Are you just talking about a stock in-tank or are you also including high-flow in-tanks?
