If it's a inline pump close as possible to the fuel tank .

If you have an APS external pump and bracket, the best place is to mount in on the LHF rail where the swaybar bolts to the body and you will need to run wiring from the rhf fuse box in engine bay and you wont need a pressure regulator

this is some thing I dont understand

if you fit another fuel pump in the fuel line will it actually draw fuel threw the factory pump if it runs out of volume

I would have thought once the factory unit reaches it's limit it would just become a restriction for the other pump trying to supply fuel ,

that's one of the reasons we run a surge tank so the factory pump is just supplying an empty tank with no back pressure and the secondry pump can feed off the surge tank and run full pressure to the regulator

even if it will draw threw the factory pump you will still sufer from the fuel surge issue these tanks have when you run the sort of power that requires a bigger fuel pump

thanks for that info but will I need a surge tank and with the fuel line do I cut it and will hose clamps hold the pressure. Will standard injectors be ok till I buy bigger ones

You might want to give us more of idea what you want to do to the car

the stock fuel pump is good for 260rwkw or more wich will be the limit of your injectors ,so if you put bigger injectors in at that stage then you will probably want a surge tank in the sedan then run the bigger fuel pump off that

tell us what your trying to do at the end of the day ,that might make it easier to help you
