Fuel Pump Relay Kit
Required for any fuel pump larger than 340 LPH.
High-flow fuel pumps draw significantly more current than factory wiring was ever designed to handle. When a fuel pump larger than 340 LPH is run on stock wiring, voltage drop is almost unavoidable. That voltage drop reduces pump output, which can cause fuel pressure to fall exactly when the engine needs it most.
When fuel pressure drops, the engine runs lean. Under boost or high load, this can quickly lead to detonation, damaged pistons, or complete engine failure.
There is also a serious safety concern. Factory fuel pump circuits are typically undersized for high-current pumps. Pushing that much current through them can overheat the wiring, melt connectors, damage the harness, and in extreme cases cause an electrical fire.
This relay kit solves those problems by using a low-current 12V trigger to activate a high-capacity relay that sends full battery or alternator power directly to the fuel pump through properly sized wiring. The result is stable voltage, consistent fuel delivery, and a much safer electrical system.
Protect your engine. Protect your wiring. Power your fuel pump correctly.

NOTE: Although this harness's components are rated at a maximum of 40 amps the constant current load should not exceed 25-30 amps. This is because the performance of all electrical components decreases with as temperature increases. It is good practice to locate the fuse and relay as far away from sources of heat as possible. Some electrical loads such as fan motors have a high inrush current upon startup which also has to be factored into this equation.

General Shipments - We currently ship 3-4 times a week with our Economy shipping option (USPS), and every weekday with our Standard and Expedited shipping options (DHL, UPS). If an order is placed on Friday or on the weekend, it will be processed and shipped out likely on Monday or Tuesday. However, this is fully circumstantial on product stock and backorder timeline.
How long does shipping generally take? - Depending on where you are located, shipping can range from 1 day to 30+ days. Shipping within the United States and Canada is generally 1 to 3 days Expedited, 2 to 4 days Standard, and 4 to 7 days with our Economy shipping option. Shipping elsewhere to say Europe or Australia is generally 5 to 7 days Expedited, 7 to 10 days Standard, and 16 to 30 days with the Economy shipping option.
