Fuel pumps are not a fan of running dry. Starvation to the stock fuel pump assembly could shorten the life span of the factory pump. This is, of course, a relevent issue with any compariable type of surge solution for any vehicle. Its more just a heads up rather than a prediction of impending doom.

you are dead on here... at the track this weekend, the cheap OEM fuel sending unit on my car basically broke in half and sent the pump flying around inside my tank... and of course all the lines got pulled lose, and I lost all fuel delivery...
It is possible that there were errors when the assembly was reinstalled in my vehicle that contributed to the structural failure of the sending unit... also possible that it is a cheap plastic part and doesn't hold up to g-loads and the mass connected to it
hopefully you are including some reinforcement to the strength of the sending unit assembly
