Finally getting around to installing my vmp bap along with some other goodies.

Am I overthinking this install?

VMP's kit comes with a plug that you cut off, then has literally 3 wires - orange, fused red, and black.

Am I correct in assuming I cut the green/yellow wire from the fpdm harness, then splice in the orange to one end (connector side) and the red goes to the other, then black to ground?

I feel like from all the posts I see this literally can't be that simple.

Appreciate it in advance!

There are multiple was to run it and each have its advantages. In the end no it is not a hard install at all. Are you upgrading the wiring also while doing this? With the products on the market now a days I recommend against using a BAP but to each his own.

What else is there besides larger pumps? I always thought that was the best way to roll, but it seems that bap was and is still the go to.

After researching, the wire upgrade helps lower DC more, but never really seen concrete evidence to make me think I *need* it just yet. Once I go with a larger blower I'll do that, or return but for now I'll see how it goes.

I should have a continuous 18.5 volts now, but my amperage won't be much higher I don't believe (cars a stock Eaton with 3.10 upper and 4lb lower) as my fuel needs dont require much more than stock gives.

Appreciate the input man! For real though, that install was literally cut one wire, then I had gold solder for the connections. Bingo.
