Standard is normally fine, but for that power level you may need a "group a item"

More importantly have you rewired it, if not then you need to get this sorted, otherwise you risk loosening your engine anyway, it's a well known problem as the wiring builds resistance and hence the pump cannot draw the power it needs, that could be what you are noticing.
