During my search, I've read that this new HPOP will eliminate the need for the HPX line. I thought the purpose of the HPX line was to equalize the pressure on both rails. If so, wouldn't the pump constantly provide an increased volume flow over the stock form pump? Does this pump help with injector starvation, cackle, etc.?

Bob swore up and down that there would be no tuning changes needed when I spoke to him at the TS event. It would just provide more volume easier based on what my tunes called for. I walked away with a cool hat and some ideas. The price is right on that pump if you have problems.

Did I read that the intro price is over?

Sounds good to me.

With stock tunes, the pressure doesn't drop because there isn't nearly the volume of oil required to pump the fuel stock tunes call for.
Ok, so this pump basically has the on-demand capability to provide enough volume flow (thus increase in pressure head?) when required. How advantageous is it to install this pump first, in mostly stock form?

I'll wait until it goes back down or he can keep it. Mine is doing OK.

I just read that today. I have the hard HPX installed, so the likely hood of a failure is pretty slim. However, his logic if I understand it right, is that when the check-valve springs are removed from the output side, the volume is automatically balanced.

I thought about leaving my SS HPX on when installing the Stealth, but opted to remove it. I didn't really think it would make that much difference. I had a slight seep from one of the HPO rail O-rings and wanted to remedy this. Without the line, it will be a bit easier to remove my turbo next time I need to.

I'm not sure what check valves you're referring to. I'm not trying to argue anyone here on this subject and I'm not trying to hijack your thread. I think it's great that you're getting this pump and look forward to reading your observations. I'm only trying to understand this thing more so I can better explain it. If this pump is a good thing to have installed, even before a DP Tuner, better turbo, etc. I want.

No worries!! That's what threads are for! There are springs in the output connections that act as check valves. They are removed with the Adrenaline, so there shouldn't be a need for balancing the two heads anymore. They are both fed the same exact same pump pressure since the springs are no longer used. Have a look at page two:

I did some digging around and it seems that most of the tuning issues are with trucks running stock injectors. Stock sticks seem to be more sensitive to the extra volume.

Hey Joe did you go ahead and have him add a rebuilt IPR with your order? Just curious, I did since I'm under the impression it's common for them to go bad after swapping the HPOP.

Huck,

Did you see my data logging post after swapping my 15° pump for the Adrenaline? If not here it is. LINK This is with the stock AB injectors
and tuning for the stock pump..
