Default airdog or fass

I am needing a fuel system on my truck but I'm not sure which to go with. I have been trying to find out which of these is a better product. I'm looking to hear if anyone has had any problems with there fuel system? The unit I am looking into is the Airdog ll 150 GPH. everyone I know is running a Fass system and they like them and no problems but they do cost more.
My truck is pretty much stock with a EZ edge but I want to get a Edge juice with attitude and put some 100hp injectors. I'v been told that a 100 GPH wouldn't keep up?

I made 575hp on a fass 95 it flowed enough but I needed a pump for my other truck I picked up so I got a 150 and put the 95 on the stock truck. I like fass over airdog.

ive had both on my truck both work great. the fass filters cost more and wont filter down as low on the micron scale. the air dog II runs quiter than the fass does and is a bout half the size. i had the fass 150 and i was impressed with it, but i hit the point where fuel pressure would drop down lower than i liked. now im running the air dog II 200 and wot with all shes got it drops from 19-20 to 15. the fass uses the draw straw and everyone i know running it has 1/4 tank issues. the air dog uses a different style pickup that doesnt have these issues. the one thing that i really like the air dog has a removeable plate over the pump gyrator and is easily serviceable. the fass the motor has to be removed to clean and check the pump gear. so both pumps are great and work about the same, the difference comes down to price of the pump and filters and servicablity.

If you don't want to drop your tank do an airdog 100. My truck is knocking on 600 hp's door and I'm still running the airdog 100. It's always been good to me and I've never seen less than 13 psi at wot with my setup even when I was running the stock draw unit. I do have the Vulcan draw straw in it now but with your setup there really isn't a need to drop the tank and install a new tube. The stock setup there will do fine IMO

There is no reason to drop the tank anyway, seeing as lifting the bed is easier. Easier as long as you have a box, not a deck or anything else. I have the opinion of do it once, and do it right. I have a fuel pump that can fuel my engine above and beyond my intentions. FASS supports a lot of events and deserves business for that.
