Thanks to screaminxl for a great deal on a Bosch 044 fuel pump.
Question, he had it hooked up to the stock line after the filter, would it make a difference if I did the same and have the 255 feed the 044? Or would I be better of putting the 044 in tank

So I go out the the truck a little while ago and start it up to run to the store. It sounded different lol. Got to looking around and the bolts for the rear flange, that connects the ypipe the the 4" exhaust, came out. So I ran basically open headers to the parts store. Needless to say it was fun lol.

so I picked up a 27x8x4 intercooler. Going to reroute the intake tube from the tb to the intercooler. And weld some nuts for the iat sensor and the meth nozzles. The new intake will look something like this.

That should work, I think my old air to air was a 31x12x3 IIRC.

ordered the intake tubing, some silicone couplers, and some t bolt clamps to help keep it together. The iat sensor showed up today. Thinking about running it in the aluminum pipe just in front of the TB, and run the meth nozzle in the 45* bend pipe just in front of the 90* bend. Just need to find an aluminum 3/8" npt nut to weld onto the tube.

Nice!
I am debating if I want to try and mount my Procharger one behind my grille this time home. I will be doing the billet grille and the Tru Cool so it would be a good time since the front end will be torn apart.

So I know Frozen Boost is mentioned for a FMIC. Who else is out there to compare and check out
