You can go that route. I never messed with the Aviators. I went from the termi pumps to the GT pumps. I was around 500rwhp on a mustang dyno and was at 95% duty cycle. I have the wire upgrade and stock FPDM.

Got it, thanks!
Any reason people choose the GT's over the Aviators? Everything i've looked at shows the Aviators flow more...
Yes twin Aviators,Focus' and GT pumps fit in the stock 03/04 hat without any problems and fpdm's don't increase voltage to the pumps that's what the BAP does
The GT pumps cost less
^^ If you wanna go that route buy a Modified fpdm from Derek too that setup will support about 500..
which setup is good for 500?
^ Single Aviator and BAP! Doing the wire upgrade and modified fpdm will also lower the fuel pump duty cycle!
^ This.
You should get a 10% overdrive and a 2.9" pulley on that V1 if you want to get close to 500. You will have to max out the blower if you want to touch 500 un-ported PI heads. You will definitely need a intercooler because that blower will be pushing nothing but hot air once it gets into the 50k+ rpm range.
I know because I just went through this before I had my motor built. Will be hard to crest 500 with un-ported PI heads. I thought it wouldnt be an issue since most people pick up 40-50 hp with a good blower cam. With a forged bottom end most pick up 30-40 hp. Even with the big number gains that would of left me at 490 hp with 15lbs of boost and I have a SI upgraded vortech headunit. I think 17 psi would be the ticket but I cant run that much boost with 91 octane, sigh.

I invite you to view my Intercooler build thread and yes this should be a no brainer, it will lower IAT temps..

I'm curious as to what actual fuel pump is in your tank? post pics when you take it out!
I just seen a thread and a guy was @ 80% DC with a single focus pump with KB BAP. The car made 460hp.
Edit: I'll sell you my focus pump and BAP for 150. The BAP has the pressure switch but no dial. I've had them both since new. The BAP doesn't have the voltage adjust but you won't need it anyway.

Im interested if the focus pump is a drop in for my mustang gt, and for dual cobra hat...
Its a direct drop-in for the single hat but not for the dual cobra hat. It fits the cobra hat but the electrical connectors are different. I had the focus pump installed in my 2000 mustang gt fuel tank. Took me longer to jack the car up then it took to drop the tank and plug in the focus pump. I just upgraded to a 03 cobra tank with division x hat.
I also have a dual cobra hat with stock cobra pumps, I'll sell for $120. No fuel level sending unit though. Only threw this out there if your interested in running a dual pump set up in your GT tank.

Yeah, I have quite a bit of left over parts from this build.
Got a video of the current setup acting funky while cruising this weekend.
This is me going along and it spikes when I press the go-pedal. Then I hold in the clutch and do a rev at the end. When I accelerate it holds steady at 40psi.
