Either or would do fine. If you have bigger power plans in the future get a 40amp.

You will need the 40 if you plan on 2 pumps along with a modified FPDM. But if you are sticking with the stock block the 20amp is all you need with a single GT40 Fuel pump.

Yep.
On the other hand the price differential is not that great and it could not hurt to have the 40A.

Just don't turn it all the way up for everyday driving. The 40a model that is. Set it for 17v. I can't remember where that is on the dial. I want to say 10 or 20%.

Chris, what's the recommended setting for a 20 amp?

We suggest letting the tuner set the BAP. And then leaving it alone!

Okay, so then I must have bumped mine as is was only set about halfway on the dial, I'm thinking is should be turned to the may; correct?

Instead of GT pump consider one of the Aeromotive stealth 340's. I'm running one with a BAP on my 550rwhp Fox. I don't have a single PSI drop in pressure and the BAP is barely on (5%)

These are very good pumps and we have had good success with them.
