slightly better gasmilage, slightly more HP and torque... Well that is as long as you remove the mechanical fuel pump.
When I got my truck it had an eletric fuel pump feeding the mechanical fuel pump!?!

It is a nice theft deterent if you wire in a toggle switch to the fuel pump.
I'm not sure if there is a huge advantage, there must be, I hear alot of guys doing it, my truck already came with it when I bought it back in May
