Terminator engineering.the injectors are powered by ojl pressure.in high mileage trucks it will not keep up in performance situations.that is bad for power and economy both.

Well with my Cali truck, I've got split shot 120cc injectors. (120cc some correct me if I'm wrong) and on my 120hp I maintain 3000 psi at WOT through all the gears.

Yes, it does produce more pressure than a new stock pump. OBS trucks have a 15* and superdutys have a 17* pump. The t-500 is a modded 17* pump.

Which reminds me, I let my buddy use mine as a core for his t-500 and he never gave me his, when he put the t-500 in his 99 superduty. I better make a phone call. Lol

I've seen my speedometer sitting at 99 on my gps for a while after I let off the gas peddle. So I'm not sure what the truck was doing. But I haven't seen it over 80-85 in a while.

85 is plenty fast. Fuel intake at that speed is huge.

a T-500 is NOT just a modified 17* pump. the 15* are actually used as well. They are actually BETTER for the t-500 pumps
