How will this run

I am getting a bd vp44 a lift pump and a edge juice/att
I have a BHAF and going to be building a 4inch SS exhaust

How will this run/idle with the BD pump?
what should I expect for power out of it?
I know the bd says 100hp on stock and about 60 if there is a chip
but does anyone have some dyno numbers to back it up?

Im not looking for lots this will be plenty for now just curious to what it is going to put down.

I'll guess around 375 maybe a hair more if your clutch holds. I made 377/810 with pretty much the same mods but that was with an auto and an HY35 turbo instead of an HX35.

I have been getting hp numbers all over the board one guy got 470 with chip a hot rod lift pump and some 100's

What I want to know more about is how well the bd vp44 runs on idle and how high it can rev to while still suppling enough fuel.

Ok, BD re-sells a lift pump kit and a VP44 injector pump. The injector pump is speed limited by the engine computer to start de-fueling at 2700 rpm unless you get a race module like a Edge Drag Comp.
Their regular lift pump looks like a Carter 4601hp and it won't hardly make enough pressure with 100hp injectors & some kind of hot rod module unless you get rid of all the restrictive "banjo" fuel fittings and install high flow fittings like the Big Line kit available at Vulcan Performance. Mine just barely meets spec at 10psi at WOT, wide open throttle.
I don't like running 2 lift pumps so I don't buy into BD's booster lift pump, which looks like a Carter 4600 low perf. pump, idea...if one quits, you have to check 2 pumps, maybe in the rain. I have one on the frame rail in front of the fuel tank and wired stock. The other is in a box under the passenger seat at the ready to be used as a spare...been there since Sept.'04.
My Jammer 100hp nozzles on my injectors idled smooth after they were "pop" (the pressure set to stock specs before opening) pressure calibrated.
