Bosch VP44 injection pump removal the fast way!
The one year warranty pumps are about $125 cheaper than the 2 year ones. That is just the regular HO or SO pumps.

Ready to do a fuel system
I have an AD in mine. Installed 8 years ago. The only problem I had was a failed pump years ago. AD replaced no questions asked. The one I bought came with a kit to replace the in tank pump, the only I could find at the time that came with it. The added filtration was a big plus. Mine is mounted on the inside of the frame rails but does hang below a little. Beings my truck does not see alot of off road I dont worry about that aspect. I have never seen any damage to the filters. As Mike mentions you will need to do a larger fuel pick up. You need that for the full benefit of the pump. I have no experience with the mechanical style but several members here use them and are quite happy with them. IIRC they cost about the same but you have go elsewhere for more filtration and that means more money. I would defer to them that has them to say for sure.

No boost
Waste gate stuck open maybe? Can't remember if you checked that. I still don't believe it is your turbo. Fuel related, electronic maybe mechanical, hard to say with no codes.

No boost
Was the MAP sensor connected to the oe harness and not the quad?

No boost
The whole purpose of the test is to completely disconnect the Quad from the truck including the map sensor. Then you will need to drive the truck. You should be able to feel the boost and hear the turbo charger. Are you just revving the engine or are you driving the truck? Free revving the engine in the driveway will produce no boost.

Is the MAP sensor reconnected to the oe harness?

You unplugged both what??

Bouncing Around
Had some Ranchos on mine, liked them pretty well but they wore out in couple years. For the price I expected more. Less than a year of good use, i would warranty them.

Not without issues. There is sn article in the 2nd gen section about this very thing. Sorry I can't link it at the moment.

Lift Pump
Ain't that the truth!!!

Lift Pump
No sir I did not. Still have it and I now have 225k on it. Mstter of fact my oe lift failed at 150k and i did not loose that VP either, put another 70k on that one for a total life span of 145k. The oe VP was the crappy one at only a 75k life span. Dodge got stuck with that one.

Want to increase turbo boost
Clamp the line or take the line off the actuator and clamp a bolt in it. In 20 or 30 minutes you will know. And if that does not work then dig deeper. Try the simple things first. Sounds very much like the boost elbow is not doing its job.

What an evening
Wish we would have had a simple dump valve to open.

^This^. Very simple test.

What an evening
A couple times. After getting to the room a cleaning up even more, I could still smell it until i fell asleep. As far as pay goes, I got paid on Wednesday just like always. I was fortunate enough to have a plumber with a drain snake. He was able to get the snake thru all of that and into outfall pipe. I ran the jet to break it all up. That's customer service!!

What an evening
Next time i will be more thoughtful and invite yall along. The fishing was plentiful. Ahhhh, natures bounty.

No you do not need TDC for the test.

I keep getting P0237
I have read in thread or 2 where the ECM was relocated to the fender well. But it seems rare. I know nothing about how they did it nor do I really believe it would make much difference. But I like you cannot speak from any great electrical knowledge. I am a rookie with the electronics on vehicles. I am going to take a better look at that 5v splice when I get home this weekend. The picture asks more questions than it gives answers as to what all is in the splice.

Well the Order is in
I hope they strap to a fast donkey to get it to the dealer.

I keep getting P0237
Here are a couple pics of the ground wire splices I am speaking. This first one is of the splice of the ground wires from sensors. This is similar to the ground splices described in @W-T's ground wire mod for the computers and I was thinking it could be the source of my issues. But maybe it's not. This second picture is another splice closer to the ECM. If I am reading the 02 wiring diagram correctly this splice is for the 5 volt supply to the MAP and the oil pressure sensor. It is also the area of the wiring harness I have been manipulating. I did not pay much attention to this one when I opened up my spare wiring harness, it just caught my attention enough to take a picture of it. I don't know if either of these splices are your issue but it seems mine lays in there somewhere.

P1291 With grid heats disconnected
Mine has not set a code for this since I disconnected them 2.5 years ago.

Airdog filters only?
I'll cast a vote for filterspro.com. Bought a box full of oil and fuel filters from them about 15 months ago. Time for another order, only 1 more oil filter left. Good pricing in quantity even with shipping. Thanks for putting me on to them @AH64ID.
