Default ABBREVIATIONS/SHORT TERMS

I am new to diesel forums and have had diesels my whole life but never really did any mods or repairs so I have no idea what most of the abbreviations mean, any abbreviations with meanings would be much appreciated, like, CC=Crew Cab, PSD=Power Stroke Diesel, also things like the HPOP, what does that do and what does it stand for? MBRP???

HPOP=High Pressure Oil Pump

I actually don't know what it's exact function, but I've learned that as you modify your truck with chip and injectors and fuel system, the HPOP can lag behind robbing power due to it's inability to match the demands of the mods as you press your foot into the gas pedal...

High pressure pumps use a specialized delivery method in the form of an injection system. This kind of oil pump is best suited for diesels as their primary source of fuel. The major drawback of this pumping system is the fact that there is a chance that air will be mixed with the fuel while being transported to the internal combustion engine. But in terms of engine performance, high pressure pumps assure a smooth running engine system.

There are so many different abbreviations used here someone should make a sticky to explain all of them. Another one that is used a lot is PM for powered metal rods.

Thats exactly what I was hoping for, for everyone to contribute and after a while we could put them all together.
