Im done with the rewire, but if i used a bigger could i still get more voltage from the pump?
 
Do you mean using a bigger power wire to the fuel pump? Larger gauge wire will carry more current to your fuel pump, if that's the information you're looking for.

You probably won't benefit from a wire gauged bigger than what was on your stock harness, and you stand the chance of starting fires with anything gauged smaller.
 
Anything larger than 10ga or 12ga wire and you're getting to a point with diminishing returns. The wire at the connector to the fuel pump is smaller anyway. To me, it seems like having the voltage come directly from the battery is the main factor for the increased voltage at the pump.

I think im going to wire it all the way to the pump eliminating all the stock wiring.
 
Follow the instructions in the VFAQ and the write-ups here. You can't just "eliminate" the stock wiring to the fuel pump. If you simply attach a power wire to from the battery to the pump, the pump is going to be running all the time. You need the stock wires as a signal wire to trip the rewire relay and send power through.

Ive already done it.I was just asking was there anything to be improved on.
