New lift pump. 95 vs 165

[Unreal Summit]

So my brother is about to buy a new lift pump for his truck. He has 150hp injection edge ez and wants a little bigger turbo. Should he get a 95 of 165.  Fass or airdog.  Any help or suggestions is appreciated!

The higher rated pump may last longer then the 95 and 100 pumps

Mechanical pump will probably be more reliable than any electric pump. Flow and pressure also increase with RPM. Most electric pumps will lose a little pressure at higher RPM's.

95 GPH is plenty of fuel, and won't outflow his filters.

This is the way I went.  I failed to see the logic in replacing an electric pump with another electric pump.  Kinda like kicking the can down the road...or doing the same thing twice and expecting a different result. 

 

I figured if I'm gonna gamble with a grand (cost of new VP44), I'd just hit Vegas instead and get similar odds while having a much better time.  There just aren't as many showgirls around when I'm working on the truck.
