It needs to be efficient enough to keep the motor running. There is no substitute better than a turbine in your car' s gas tank.

If your in-tank pump doesn't work , adding an inline pump to the system won't work because there will be too much restriction on the suction side of the inline pump.

Are you talking about running BOTH pumps at the same time? Or just running the in-line pump by sucking fuel thru an in-operating stock pump? I'm running a HyperTech inline pump but I added a separate 3/8" steel tubing suction line to my tank's sending unit flange for the HyperTech but left my stock pump in place (now unused).
