I'm replacing a bad low pressure fuel pump on my 914 with dual webers, I've got two questions, first, would it be best to get a pump rated 1.5-4 psi or one that is 4-7 psi? My car has dual regulators so i can adjust the pressure down if needed. Secondly, the pump is mounted beside the battery, would it be better to relocate up where the fuel tank is? Thank you!

in the classic thread forum andy explains how to properly wire your pump while retaining the stock harness and relay. adapt the stock pump wire to work with the aftermarket pump. 2 fuel pressure regulators is twice the overkill when using the proper pump. too much heat in the engine compartment and as mentioned the placement is too high for the pump to function effectively. if there's a leak your car is going to prob burn up.
