What ga wire do you all run to the 5th gen pump in the vaporworks? The harness Rick provides looks like 14-16 ga.

I would think 16ga would be plenty but it never hurts to do a plus 1 on the wire size if weight isn't a concern. If it's a long run 14ga would provide less resistance. A short run would be okay with 16.

Depends on the length of the wire run.
For most applications where the battery is in the trunk and a relay is used, 14ga is sufficient. If the battery is in the engine compartment then 12ga is appropriate.
The pump requires 11a at 13.5v/60psi, typical of most 5th-gen setups with an adapted regulator.
