Which fuel pump? Again, check your FRP sensor. There's clearly a short/ground issue somewhere. Hopefully, it's just your MAP wiring, but if you can't solder or quick connect wires right, you're still going to have this problem when you get the extension. It's not going to hurt you to at least do a physical inspection in that area. You can lead a horse to water...
So far he's posted 2 different threads (in the first I told him to check his wiring, since that was the only variable that changed) and bumped this thread from the dead. lol.

Maybe if he posts enough it'll fix itself.

He posted on a couple Facebook forums too. I told him once on one of those posts and one of the threads here. I didn't realize until this thread who I was dealing with; this guy is hard-headed. It's easier to save your breath, errr, fingers.

my issue was that i was rushing when i put the intake in, and i nicked the 2 wires going into the rear censer and when the motor would twist from the torque. it would ground out and pop the fuse. since ive found the problem, ive taped and covered the wires. havent popped a fuse since.
