Default Want to replace VP44 Hot Rod on 99 24V

So I recently bought a new 24V, it wasn't stock it came with several mods and one of them being a VP44 Hot Rod, and honestly I hate the sound it gives the truck when idling.

So what I was looking into doing is buying a new Injector pump, but I don't want to get rid of any of the Mach 6 Injectors, or the S475 Twin Turbo Kit or any other mod unless it is extremely necessary.

I really want an injector pump that will go for at least 100,000 miles so I'm not sure which one to go with. I was looking into getting a P Pump but it seems like I'm going to have to replace a lot of things such as the Mach 6 Injectors and a few more things, another one I was looking into was VP44 SO pump but I'm not too familiar with that, which pump should I get I honestly have no clue?

By the way here are all the mods on the engine, like I said before I only one to replace to injector pump without the hassle of buying new turbo's Injectors etc.. I would like to stay below 2,000 dollars too!

Mods:

Hybrid 35/40 over S475 Twin Turbo Kit
HTT 3pc. Exhaust Manifold
Banks High Ram Intake
F1 Diesel Mach 6 Injectors
Blue Chip Diesel Hot Rod Vp44 (Which I want to remove)
TST Powermaxx 3
Fire-ringed Sheid Cylinder Head
ARP 12mm Head Studs
AirDog 150
Hellman Billet Fuel Sump

What sound does the VP give it? An SO pump is nothing more the a Standard Output stock vp44 that comes on the 235 hp engines. They are all the same just depends on the price really.

Maybe if you could scrap the money a p7100 swap? It's a mechanical injection pump if you haven't heard of it. It's from the 12valves

It could be your injectors giving you the lope too. I am not real familiar with those injectors and their size but I would say they have to be close to 250 hp. Do you have oversized fuel lines and connecting tubes as well?

I bet it does have larger lines and crossover tubes as well and they really give it the lopey idle.

That is what I was thinking.
