Default cummins upgrades

this weekend i will be ordering some parts for my 1999 cummins 24v shortbox quad cab 3/4 ton. so far i have done an icebox air intake with s&b filter, silencer ring mia, 4 inch downpipe into 5 inch aussie cut stacks and front cover seal and valve adjustment. i am about to roll 209000 miles. now that the info is outta the way i am thinking of ordering a quadzilla adrenaline with pulse, a fass 150, daystar 2 inch leveling kit, and recon smoked cab lights (sex lights). does anyone have any downfalls on these parts i should be aware of or tips to install, etc. also which fass should i do the 95 or 150..same price... and wat should i get the hd, platinum, or titanium? btw i am ordering all of this from thoroughbreddiesel.com got some great prices i haven't found beat yet. all of that for $1488

AirDog old style (better in my opinion) is only $499 now get the 150 gal and rooster24v is correct can't have too much flow on the lift pump and will save you 200-300 bucks!

The best one that you can afford, your fuel system can't be too good on these trucks. And deffinately get a fuel pressure gauge, absolut must on these trucks, and start saving for a clutch as well
