Default Raptor 95, 100 or 150

Thinking about getting a raptor. The only mod I have is the edge juice with attitude. I'm thinking I should get the raptor 100 but if I get the 150 would that be to much pump?

As these units have a built in regulator, there really isn't "too much pump". If you go larger now, there is room for more modifications without having to change your lift pump again.

I would do the 150 and replace your draw tube.

Would I need to remove the tank or bed to install the draw tube?

I didn't find it too bad when I put my FASS and Draw Straw in. I had the tank very, very low on fuel which helped a lot. A couple 4x4's and a floor jack is all I used to raise and lower the tank. There is a frame cross member that needs to be unbolted and swung out of the way, and then it's free to come down. If my memory is correct.
Good luck!

Ditto on the other posts. You wont go wrong with going big now, who knows what you might add later? You never know what you might win on one of the give-a-ways. Too much pump is like building too big of a shop, No such thing.
