Default Adrenaline, kind of let down

well the title says it all.. i replaced my injection pump and installed a new airdog 150 this weekend after my last pump seized up.... thing is with the other pump it ran alot stonger than it does now... now even with the comp tunes loaded and set on kill it barely smokes and i can only hit about 1100 degree's when before it was defueling at 1350... it is adding power but it really seems weak.. any idea's.. im almost to the point of wanting to switch to an edge comp/hot unlock...

Opinions welcome..

nope nothing even ran my scanner on it and its normal... the pump i had before was a sfx from bluechip diesel but i dont think it was worth that much power.. what are yall opinions on the edge comp box?

well from what i understand there's not a whole lot that can go wrong... i know its not running out of fuel w/ the airdog on it now but i will say the truck is a lot more sluggish with this new pump i installed

The COMP is unbeatable in smooth, hard fuelling, easy power, IMO. I have one, and when I really want to go I quickly install it. Other wise I run an EJWA CTS.

Do you have a stealth plate? If not, I highly suggest one.
