Air Dog 150 or Raptor 150?
 
OK, I want one or the other, both have lifetime warrantys, but which is easier to install? I have no cash(like most) and the Raptors cheaper, and do I have to drop the tank for both kits? I read somewhere that someone didn't on one I just cant remember which. I'm also about to get a VP as well and can I just get the industrial VP, instead of a X-pump? Will that do with the AirDog or Raptor? My trucks stock(Edge module, intercooler soon, exaust).Is there anything I would need extra, besides the 90 degree fitting for guage? So for all the questions, I just wana make sure I get everything the 1st time, this is my daily driver, and it goes from Ohio to Fla. frequently.

Thanks again everyone.

Go for the Raptor

If you use the raptor 150 it is just a pump no filter system and still uses the stock fuel pick up tube unless you buy a draw straw seperate. The ads say "easier to install and you dont have to drop the tank",but the big line kit that is supplied with the kit is worthless IMO with a stock small pick up line in the fuel tank.You would have to buy a seperate filter kit or plumb it through the stock filter on the truck.The stock filter is junk IMO and one more restriction in the system using a big fuel supply hose.
So after all is said and done you could buy an AirDog 150 for a hundred dollars more and get a superior filter system with a water/Air separator all in one unit probably save time and money. I would take the extra time thats required and drop the tank install the big draw straw supplied in the AirDog Kit. Go AD 150!
Most of the threads I have seen on Supped up VP44s most people say its not worth the extra money, get a good stock VP same # as what you have from a good vendor here. Hope this helps .

If funds are available id go with the Airdog. But the Raptor is also an excellent choice. Let me know if I can help.
