Edge Juice w/attitude instaled????

Well I got it installed everything works, my question is what is normal fuel psi?? mine reads 11&12 psi at idle and if I romp on it on setting 5 it drops all the way to 2 to 3 psi I plan on adding an air dog will this get my psi up and keep it up?

That describes what mine was at with the stock LP. If I turned it on to 5x5 and romped on it, it would drop the fuel psi to 0

I added a Holley Blue to my setup and cannot drop it below 15 psi now. An airdog setup should provide adequate fuel as well

would that be a good choice just going with an airdog instead of doing a new lift pump?? its better than JUST a lift pump isnt it??

I don't know much about the airdog setup personally, but I'm sure it is FAR better than just a stock LP. All of the aftermarket setups provide more consistent fuel pressure.

Your installation instructions for your edge tell you what you need to see for fuel pressure. It will tell you min. 10psi at idle and min. 4psi at WOT. The pressures you are seeing right now are pretty much what a brand new lift pump will deliver with those mods. You almost meet the WOT minimum but if you plan to do any other mods in the future, which I'm sure you will, then you might as well do your pusher pump sooner than later.

a pusher pump would be like the holly, the air dog is a great choice, its pritty close to what i have, but mine is a FASS. it replaces your fillter and water seperator and makes it 2 different stages, works much better and removes air from the fuel. great choice just go with it so you can stop worrieing about your fuel system.
