MITUSA my good man. The FASS and AirDog are both good pumps but in the end they are both electric motor pumps. The MITUSA is a mechanical belt driven pump. If you do a search for all three you will find a mass amount of info on the site, way to much to copy n paste in here.

The best parts of the MITUSA are that the higher your RPM's go the more fuel it pumps since it works off the flywheel and the only thing to go wrong is to break a belt and that takes 5 minutes roadside with no tools to fix. So far I've got 100,000 plus on mine and still the original belt but I do carry a spare just in case.

The guy that designed it and market's it is a sponsor here on the site now and I'm sure he would be happy to answer any questions. Here's his area on the site, Intelligent Engineering Inc - Diesel Bombers

Wish we could get him be a more active salesman and push his way in here to get his products more known but he won't do it. He will tell ya anything you want to know about anything to do with our trucks but you have to ask.

the MITUSA is the best IMHO as it has no electric motor on it..................dont get me wrong the airdog and fass are excellent as far as a electric driven pump however in the end the mechanical driven pump will prevail.........................MITUSA stands for made in the usa

Also what did that MITUSA pump cost?

Which one?? Last time I checked, the BD pump wasnt that good - wasnt much different than a stocker. There is a difference between a simple pump and the system with the filters on it.

They are not cheap - but what does an Injector pump cost? Not cheap either.

Fass, Airdog and the MITUSA are all pretty similar in cost at the normal prices. Sometimes there are sales or special deals to be had on any of them at any given time.
