I know someone in CO running it and it's proven reliable thus far. I think he got his from Industrial Injection.

When he got it he sold his Comp

I have one, and so far I love it. I do not dyno my truck, as that is not what I bought it for, but I would guesstimate about 25 extra hp from stock. Makes more smoke, and also get a stronger diesel smell at idle, like it is pushing more fuel even idleing. Doug was great to work with, and the price is cheaper than a Cummins reman, so I went for it.

Cannot testify to longevity, it has only been on for 2-3 weeks now, but hopefully it will be on for quite a while. My understanding is that it has the best attributes from both the SO pump as well as the HO pump.

Im running one, and so far so good. I got mine from industrial injection. Ive only had it for maybe a couple months and not quite 2000 miles. Power is definitely up from stock, and it fuels much harder all around, but especially on the bottom end. From idle the puff of smoke is at least double now when you put your foot into it, until the turbo clears it up. EGT's are also slightly higher. My fuel mileage inreased a lot over my stock pump, which died. One thing though, after driving for a while or when its really hot out, it idles rough and sounds like its missing, just until it cools back down, then it idles smooth again.

Add more fuel at idle, and your idle speed increases.

The smell probably has to do with timing.
