A after market lift pump will help save your injection pump which isn't cheap. Not anything performance wise really but a good investment

beat me to it

FASS is an aftermarket lift pump, and I would recommend an Airdog over the FASS, although that is just personal preference. Depending on what type you want, they start at around $350 I think.

I have 325,000kms on my truck, and the engine hasn't been touched. I only have plans for more power, and am not concerned about the high mileage.

The factory programming in the ECM will pull out of fuel at about 28PSI. Mine's doing it right now as my EJWA is on it's way to Edge to get repaired.

Traction during the snowing, icey winter months. Helps a lot, as it's about 800lbs right over the rear axle.
