Maybe there something loose above the pump Bob? from the pump to the plate; coming off/going on/loose wiring. Have you pulled it to check it over?
What is the sock from? It's so much smaller than the stock miata one, and that supra pump is more powerful, perhaps it's collapsing the sock or sucking it in. Half a tank, that seems extreme. I used to get fuel starve in autox, but I'd be running under an eighth of a tank to save weight and kumho's.

You have to figure the inlet hole in the tank is the important height, not so much the sock. You may have to bite the bullet and go to a swirl pot. Running really sticky tires?

At 1/2 tank my car starves for fuel and sputters when I corner to the left and only when cornering hard left. Sure seems like a fuel pickup issue. some serches on Miata.net showed others had this problem but the source of the problem was not always clear. Mine has an entirely bran new fuel system, new lines New fuel filter, and a new fuel pump. Fuel lines have all stainless -6 AN ends silver brazed on the hard lines with AN fitttings everywhere. Fuel filter is like a stock one but is setup for AN fittings as well. Fuel pump is not stock It is a 50mm Denso supra pump and the mounting has been modified using RX7 bracketry to make it secure and fit. The sock on the fuel pump is also not the same as a stock miata one. the depth the sock sticks in the tank might be 1/4" higher than stock due to the angels but I have a hard time believing it makes that much diffferance. Pictures attached It seems like before it would run down to the last teaspoon of gas in the tank. is it really possible this sock on the pump is making that much differance?
