I upgraded my setup to a CTS-V pump & Vaporworx controller last year.
This is on a 534 CI big block with 700 hp. My old setup had an Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump and had return line plumbing. It was noisy, the engine starved when taking hard corners (like cloverleafs), and I was always worried about "what if" the pump failed.
The new setup is as quiet as a new car, the fuel pressure is rock steady, and with the dual corner pickups, there is ZERO fuel starvation.
I love the fact the pump only works as hard as necessary to keep your fuel pressure at the set point. When cruising down the road, the pump is just loafing. Versus the old one that ran at 100% output all the time.

Not to mention Carl (Vaporworx) is an expert that will guide you through the entire setup. Great guy!

Best upgrade I have ever done.
