Default Stock VP44 vs. Hotrod VP44

So I'm pretty sure my VP44 has bit the dust. I'm wondering if there is any benificial gains to going to the Hotrod as going with the stock VP44? I was told that it is suggested that if you install the Hotrod VP44 that 100hp Injectors are recommended? Anyone have any information on whether or not any other mods need to be done to accomadate for the Hotrod VP44 or any other suggestions?

I would just get a SO VP44 and spend the money you saved on a good set of injectors.

You can honestly get a good solid 600 hp out of an S>O> pump with right upgrades.

On that note, what could be expected for horsepower with proper mods on a Hot Rod pump?
