This good?
 

So, I've recently picked up some goodies for my pickup(sig) and I'm hoping to get some input from you guys. First, I pickup up a set of Bosch RV275s' from 01quadcab, thanks mike. Haven't set them in cause I'm also in the process of buying a Scheid Lightning VP from cummins-dodge and also cause I haven't purchased gauges yet, they're next soon's funds allow. And, I'm looking to install a new clutch, this one has some pretty good, hard earned miles on it and I can start to feel it slip, little bit but still noticeable. My question(s) are: 1. with all the stuff going in, what kind of numbers can I expect to see, in reality? I'm not looking for a hp or torque monster, just a reliable pickup that'll tow all the farm machinery. 2. Will my stock HX35 survive with all this or am I going to need more air? I heard Majestic Turbo can upgrade them without spending monster bucks. And finally, 3. Will I need to install head studs before, jsut to be safe or should I wait till I get everything in and running, properly? I know they are cheap insurance but, like I said earlier, I'm working as funds allow. Thank yall in advance, DB rocks!

If you keep the boost to no more than 35 psi you stock turbo will live a long time and so will the gasket as long as it's still tight. I would plan on doing studs down the road when you have money. the rv's will not add a lot of boost so a bigger turbo is not needed. I would say you should see 360-390 at the wheels.

Sweet, that's about what I thought and hope for actually. I'm pretty sure the Lightning VP requires installing an AirDog or FASS right? Would it be best to install them with the draw straw or a sump? I've heard good things about both but bad things from the straw guys, so I'm leaning more to the sump.

any vp truck should have a fass or airdog on it. it's cheap insurance. I ran mine through the stock pick up and made my power

Personally, I am against the sump idea. I dont like having something protruding down close to 3" from the tank. A draw straw V works excellent if you have an in tank pump. Otherwise the factory set up works fine. I believe the Air Dog II comes with a pump delete.

yes the airdog 2 comes with a pump delete

Alright, but what about the straw sucking in air? I've heard or read somewhere the straw starts sucking in air if the fuel level gets below quarter tank or something like that? I'm pretty sure this would also occurr with the sump, especially on hard turns and such, but wouldn't it be lass restrictions with a sump? And couldn't one be made that doesn't hang so much from the tank?

air...
 

Mine sucks air....I even bought a new straw "kit" because I thought the shop cut it too short!! I just keep it above 1/2 tank for now, but I will be installing one of the DrawStraw kits that use the stock sending unit modules.....

Sup,

Mine did the same when I installed the original drawstraw. I got tired of trying to keep it above a 1/4 tank. Then bought one that goes into the fuel module that did not have the pump in it. Needless to say I messed up and drilled some holes like the instructions stated and then removed the screen. Ended up having similar issue, found out the problem was also because the Airdog return was routed to the filler neck. So I did this. Problem solved.

oudive

just attach to the factory module and you will be fine I had 0 issues with this. with a draw straw you have to drop tank with just hooking to factory you don't it's much easier
