Default Lift pump question

Im shopping for a tuner which means I am also looking for a new lift pump. I found a brand new air dog 2 on craigslist and they are selling it for way cheaper than list price. It is rated at 165. My question is if I buy an edge juice with attitude cts, is that lift pump too strong if I have the tuner on a low setting for fuel economy? The rest of the truck will be stock for a while until I can also afford new injectors. Thanks for the help!

It will work just fine. It just has more potential. They have a return line that goes back to the tank. The injection pump can only take so much fuel and the rest goes back to the tank. But read the instructions that come with the pump and see how to adjust the pressure to 16-18 psi. If it is not adjustable you need to find out what it is preset to.

I would be skeptical about buying an air dog. Let alone one off craigslist. But regardless it should be more than powerful enough to keep up with the EJWA.
