The Vortech 2010 Camaro Fuel Pump Voltage Booster (FPVB) upgrade was designed
specifically for use on 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS vehicles equipped with a supercharger to support applications with increased horsepower over the basic kit. As with any
power enhancing product, this unit is intended for use on healthy, well-maintained
engines. Vortech Engineering is not responsible for engine damage. Installation on new
vehicles will not harm or adversely affect the break-in period so long as factory break-in
procedures are followed.
For best performance and continued durability, please take a note of the following key
points:
1. Use only premium grade fuel 91 octane or higher (R+M/2).
2. Always listen for any sign of detonation (pinging) and discontinue hard use (no
boost) until problem is resolved.
A. Locate the red with white stripe wire, fourth row
down from the top on the right side when viewing
the fuse block from the back.
B. Cut the wire approximately two inches from the
back of the fuse block as shown.
C. Strip both ends of the cut wire.
D. Locate the wire harness supplied with the Fuel
Pump Booster (FPVB)
E. Temporarily plug the FPVB harness into the con-
nector on the FPVB unit. Route the orange signal
wire and red “PUMP +” wire along side the OEM

location. Cover the wires with the supplied splitloom and secure with zip ties. Unplug the FPVB
harness from the FPVB unit.

length, as they will be soldered into the previously
cut red with white stripe OEM wires.

the black "BATT-" and red “BATT+” wires from
the harness plug to each of the respective battery terminals. (Red to battery positive and Black
to battery negative/ground)
O. Trim and strip the black "BATT -" wire to length
and crimp on a blue supplied ring terminal.
P. Using a 10mm socket or wrench, attach the ring
terminal to the factory battery terminal as shown.
NOTE: Do NOT reattach to battery at this time.
Q. Locate the supplied fuse holder. Cut and strip
both ends of the wire at the middle.
R. On one end of the fuse holder, crimp on the sup-
plied yellow ring terminal.
S. With fuse NOT installed in fuse holder, attach the
yellow ring terminal to the positive factory battery
terminal, using a 10mm socket or wrench.
