Where do I install my Fuel pump cut-off switch?

Guys,

I want to add a cut-off switch for my fuel pump using the painless performance relay kit.
Do I install the switch between the "hot" wire to battery, or the "ignition-hot" wire?

You should wire the switch to de-energize the relay, otherwise you defeat the purpose of having a relay - not pulling a bunch of current through a switch.

So, put the switch on the 12V switched side of the relay.
