I've read they don't, if you have the Fuel Pressure Control Module.

Who knows, I remember seeing carbongmc saying he tried every way under the sun to hook it up and couldn't make it work right. Then someone else said they were using one perfectly. I know the new Camaros use the FPCM and they get away with a boost a pump. Myself, I'm either swapping my factory non flex pump for a flex pump, or keeping the factory non flex on the FPCM and the flex pump on a hobbs switch also inside the tank.

I have tried to install one. I had it inline before the FPCM, and after it between it and the pump, and I couldnt get it to perform. Now, there are guys that have said they have it installed and it works great, but to be totally honest, I have no idea how. Nobody that has one that works seems to post how exactly its wired in or where. After the headache Ive had with it, Im going with an external second pump to be on the safe side. Running the BAP is kind of just band-aiding the system if you ask me. Take it from a guy who melted a piston from lack of fuel, you dont want to skimp on the fuel system like I did....

I'd like to check out one of these boost a pumps that works great with an FPCM...

To be completely honest the FPCM is its very own boost a pump. People who install units to raise voltage to a pump on an FPCM don't understand how the system works...sorry. All you would have to do is swap the bleeder valve in the tank out for a higher pressure valve, or remove it entirely and lower pump prime time, and then manage fuel pressure directly from the fuel controls in the tune. OE limitation for fuel pressure in the computer is 297psi...pick your poison.

I am amazed every day at how much people don't understand about their very own products or services.

Jake, I came in here just cause I wanted to find out what a BAP was.
I got the acronym now.

This is only on the GMT900's, or everything newer than '07 Classic, correct?
