I just did this mod after I installed my FASS 165. I was noticing hard starts as mentioned in other threads that ultimately got me on to this mod. I went with the basic install on the side of the PDC with some velcro. I re-purposed the relay cover that FASS provided with the pump and slid the new relay inside that, it made for a very clean install. The only hiccup I ran into was reading too far into the diagram that shows the 15/35 pin wires joining into one. I had to do some digging on the internet before I realized that that step had already been done coming out of the ECM and the result is the yellow/white wire that is described in the instructions (exactly as shown in the wiring diagram haha). Anyway, great instructions, thanks for all the good info on this website.

found the issue...not above admitting it even though I feel really dumb....like really dumb. Don't forget to pull your rag out of your intake horn when you plug it to keep from dropping stuff in it....lesson learned Appreciate the help and sound advice to retrace steps.

Thank yall for the comments, going to go dig around for boost leaks again and retrace to a T what I did during install time to see If I can find anything.

Ran it this morning, quadzilla shows 0 psi as well as my pillar boost gauge. All other quadzilla sensor readings appear normal. Is this indicative of a MAP sensor issue?

Let me first start by saying this website is an incredible resource and I'm very grateful for all the great content yall provide. During the extended time at home during COVID, I did a few projects on the truck and now I'm having some issues. 1) Installed a FASS 165 with G&R sump 2) Replaced my old nasty battery cables with a set from custombatterycables.com After both the projects, I put everything back together and it starts and runs fine, but doesn't produce any boost and has a fairly sluggish response. There is a decent amount of smoke if I get much above 2000 rpms. I still have steady constant fuel pressure at around 18 psi with the new FASS. No check engine light, but ran an OBDII code reader and it didn't report any codes (it's a bluedriver code reader, bought it for this diagnosis as it seemed to have a good reputation, but I guess there could be a possibility that there are codes its not reading as I have nothing to compare it to at the moment). Prior to the above projects everything was great. I've been digging all though the internet and this site trying to find the cause of my problem and I just can't seem to come up with any solutions. From reading on this site, it sounds like there is a possibility it could be an issue with the MAP or data link sensor, which I tried to investigate but nothing appeared to wrong with it. Things I have tried/investigated: -no obvious boost leaks -no glaring issues with the data link or MAP sensor plugs or wiring -no OBDII codes -turbo spins freely -Unhooked the quadzilla but it still behaved the same -rechecked my battery cable wiring and everything seems fine -reflashed the quadzilla and reinstalled (everything the quadzilla reads appears normal) -My next thought was to change the MAP sensor, but I was curious if there is any way to tell that it is bad vice just blindly replacing. -Also have dealt with bad injector pumps in the past, so understand that this could be a culprit, but ever since I got a new VP44 a while back when mine failed, I have had a raptor lift pump so I don't think (well really just praying) that the VP44 isn't the culprit. But if it was failing would there be codes/other symptoms to point here? seems like it's getting fuel so I haven't dug too deep into this. I'll take anything at this point as I'm currently stumped. Again, thank yall for the content and all the great information.
