Raptor 150
 
Is the raptor 150 worth getting?I just don't have the money for an air dog so does it compete at all with the air dog?

should be the same pump as the airdog just no filters. isn't the price difference about $100? added safety of filtration is worth the money.

I would spend the extra for the AirDog! I debated the SAME thing! I ended up with the AirDog. Better filters then stock, WAY easier to change! The unit is very well made! Keeps my gauge maxed out at ALL times (gauge stops @ 15psi). Little PITA to install on short wheel base though because it has to go on outside of frame rails. Not topo bad though! Came with upgraded fittings and lines!

Raptor is an excellent pump. If you have the $100 to spend get the Airdog. If you don't the Raptor is a million times better than the stock POS.

Sooooo, I have a short bed, your telling my the AD has to go on the outside of the frame? Why?? Whats wrong with the inside of the frame? Im in need of a lift pump, and I was wondering whats the difference between outside vs inside? Sorry for the silly ??'s but I don't want to make more headaches fer myself.

Thanks

Not enough room to fit on the inside I had trouble just getting my raptor to fit on the inside.

The fuel tank is too close to the transfer case on the SWB trucks... So it has to go on the outside... Not a big deal really though! I can show you pics if you want.

I'm debating the same thing right now and am just not sure if I need the filtration down to .07 microns or whatever it is. The AD is definitely gucci, but I'm having trouble justifying the additional cost since I have to buy gauges at the same time.

DieselWeasel 05-24-2010 03:38 PM

Well since the VP is a sensitive pump as it is and the stock filter maybe does 20 microns getting any foreign material in there to damage it is not my priority... As for gauges, just get a Quadzilla Adrenaline W/ pulse... :choochoo:
