I'll soon be starting on the fuel system for my 20B Lancair ES.  Not

FWF,

but everything aft of the firewall.  I was planning on plumbing two RWS
electric pumps & filters in parallel, downstream of the fuel selector

valve.

The Lancair manual was written assuming I am doing a typical engine
installation and calls for a Cessna style gascolator.  I have two
questions, for those that are past this point.  1) Is a gascolator of

any

value when using a RWS EC-2 system?  2) Is a boost pump of any value
(upstream of the gascolator).  If you respond, an explanation of your
answer would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I have RWS high pressure pumps, no boost pump, and two  low pressure filters
(Aircraft Spruce) before the pumps (visible for pre flight checks) in my
RV6A. No problems.
