    Yes it does. You only have one because you are 2wd. GT-R is 4wd so it has two.

        the 4wd's tank is shaped around the drive shaft so one pump transfers fuel to the other side so the real fuel pump can suck it up.

          adding a high flow fuel pump will not make more power. like, if you swap pumps and then dyno nothing will change.

          however if you make enough power to out-flow the pump you are using, the engine will lean out and blow up. high flow pumps allow you to make more power but they dont make power themselves.

                  No worries.

                  You were right anyway, taken out of context it didn't make much sense.
