Default Help me spend my hard earned money

Ok so after doing some looking around on a few performance upgrades im undecided on a few. First is programmer I can get a edge drag comp for 500 or so ad then my gauges I haven't priced out yet but im guessing upwards of400 for four gauges and a pod. So should I go that route or maybe the ejwa cs with hot unlock? I figure for the price of the gauges and programmer I could just get the edge? I don't know?

Next is lift pump? I was looking at the factory replacement raptor or a Fass? I really don't plan on doing much after these small things and a better intake.

What's your guys thoughts? Im still a few weeks aways from doing it all but its coming soon.

Thanks
Adam

I wouldn't get the factory replacement pumps, I'd get atleast a 100gph pump but thats me and as far as chip depends if you want analog or digital gauges. If i didnt have a juice w att i would have done comp drag with analog gauges

The gauges don't really matter to me. I face money to spend. Just don't know if I really want to drop a grand on gauges anda chip.

I just installed my raptor150 and its doing great. Simple install not the best of instructions but simple. I'm going with a comp and found a full set of gauges in a junkyard for $100. But If I hadn't don't it the way I did ejwa would be a good route cuz I wont get a Turbo timer in my setup. But on the other hand the pillar gauges look great compared to electronics imo. Either way is a good way. Its your hard earned money get what you prefer. Xdp has some great deals right now the regular comp is 505 shipped

I run and AD 100, been going for 6 years now with no issues. I don't recommend getting a direct replacement worthless IMO. You could also get a raptor and remote mount some filters or use the stock filter. I would highly recommend the Edge J/A either cs or cts either way. With the CTS you don't have many mounting options that I am aware of, so keep that in mind.
