Default Hardwire in fuel pump?

I'm going to Hardwire in my fuel pump as I've checked the volts on boost and they dip to about 11.5v.

Is this relay up to the job?

Yes plenty up to the job, when you say hard wire, you do still mean going through a fuel cut off, using the original feed to trigger relay ?
