Help...dropping fuel pressure under boost!!

The wiring issue is something I'll try to track down. However, this problem surfaced with the stock pump in place, NOT after I installed the big pump. I installed the big pump because of the problem. So is it possible for the stock fuel pump to overpower the stock wires? I'm not making insane amounts of horsepower here. I've got another post on the 924/944/951/968 board, and I've posted some results of voltmeter testing on the battery with car running cold/warm/hot. I'm hoping that IceShark can give me his opinion on whether or not I need a new voltage regulator, or if my ground straps are no good.

F/P wiring should run down thw driver's side door entry guard and across the back of the rear seat under the lip that the seat fabric clips to. Good luck.

Tecart -
I've received a new battery gound strap from IceShark, and will be installing it this weekend. I've already beefed up the ground lead to the fuel pump. If this doesn't work I'll be installing a relay, and providing juice to the fuel pump straight from the battery. I'll post back here once I've got it figured out.

I know that on first gen turbo Eagle talon. The stock wirring is to small to get 12 volts to the pump.Most of them only get 10 volts to the pump.So they sell kit with bigger gauge wires kit and relay.
Maybe are cars need that too Specially since are cars are getting older these kind of proplem's will surface.
Did you check for voltage drop yet?
Good luck.
