What do you think of this device as an alternative to getting a higher-flow fuel pump: http://kennebell.net/accessories/boostapump/boostapump.htm? Especially since NBs don't have a fuel return line.

Get a high flow Walbro fuel pum and skip the gimmicks. I have been running the 255 Walbro in the 99 since 2003. No problems yet. Under $200.

I think I would save $100-300 and just buy a fuel pump that has the flow capacity you need. I don't like the idea of supercharging the fuel pump :). Besides, the proper way to handle fuel with boost with the technology we now have in the 21st century is with electronics :). The fuel flow part of the equation is pretty simple... just make sure you have enough flow, if not, upgrade to a stronger fuel pump :).
