x3 on gauges and lift pump...go with a fuel pressure, boost, and egt gauge. as far as the lift pump...Airdog and Fass make great pumps. as far as the intake, do a search on here for BHAF... people made their own intake for cheap, and works just as good as a 300 dollar intake. hope this was helpful..good luck

That works! Thats why I like the edge. Eliminates the need for gauges DEFINITELY a lift pump before anything though!

ScottyG, If you have any questions about which lift pump I suggest, finding a dealer close to your location or any other questions about a FASS System, be sure to let me know. I am here for FASS customer support.

I would suggest the Titanium Series Pump. You stated that your truck is pretty much stock so you really only need a 95 GPH system which is rated for up to about 600 HP. If you have the retrofitted in tank fuel pump on your 99 you would need part number T D07 095G, and if your current LP is not in the tank the part number is T D08 095G.
