Deleting the fuel bowl and running an electronic pump will give you more consistant fuel pressure through RPM range, especially when running bigger injectors. Basically more power and increased injector life.
Also gets rid of the mechanical pumps tendency to leak.

If you get the irate kit, fabrcate something to mount the damn regulator. I cant believe he sells that kit with the regulator just hanging off the fuel lines up there...

Strictly Diesel sells a very nice kit as well...
