tapping my pump?
 
Im getting ready to get a edge drag comp and i was wondering how much life will tapping my pump take off my injection pump? Thank You.

Just depends on how much life it had before you tapped it and then having a good lift pump to feed it will always help:tu:

If you got a good LP...(airdog or fass)... tap it. :rocking:

It also depends on the condition of your VP44.

I strongly suggest a Stealth plate as well.

Agreed... What kind of care was taken of it... IE, how many miles, what kind of gas, what if any additives or oils ran in tank. ULSD as you know has poop lubrication in my opinion. So I have run MANY different additives. Including my personal favorite at the moment "2 stroke boat oil". Quiets my pump down allot! Quiet pump to me is a happy pump!

I tapped mine, and prior owner had it tapped too... Ironically we both ran/run Quad ADR w/ Pulse on it... Ill find out how long she lasts and then be posting for a new pump quote eventually! HAHA!

You already have a tuner according to your signature, so you've already tapped your pump! What exactly are you asking?

I was told that you can tell if its stock LP by getting numbers off it and asking the dealer?!?! Dunno if thats true or not. As for the Fass DDRP, good pump but uses the stock filter canister. Did you upgrade your line sizes? Not that it really matters because your above 11psi but once you start adding more fuel with that tuner you may see it go below 11!

i wasnt sure if the edge tapped the pump or not. i thought it was just the drag comp that tapped it
