take a look see at these, theres one that eliminates your pump or another that kicks on when the stock wont keep up.

Looks like they are selling the first one I linked to. Have you tried one of them?
Mine was one of the ones that had a bad pump from the factory
After it wouldn't fill the filter I took it in under warranty at about 60k. It was putting out 0.8lbs and like 0.5 gpm, they replaced it with another stock pos, I'm only at 90k now and I have a feeling that it's not doing anything again... it will get a gauge on it soon, and it will ultimately be replaced regardless. That F.A.S.S. sounds good, but for $640 I think I might make due with something less cool.Mine was one of the ones that had a bad pump from the factory
The $640 FASS comes with a lot of extra bling including a better (faster, more efficient) filtration & water separation unit.
The cheaper one is just the bypass pump and installation kit. That's what I go with if I were to do the FASS route. There are other options out there though.
The FASS (pump only) is a good pump, but the BD pump (which is a Carter pump) is also a good pump. For me the only reason to go the FASS route is to get the air out of the fuel.
From what I gather mounting the BD pump (or any pump) at or below the level of the fuel in the tank also removes a lot of the air.

The best aftermarket system, IMO, is Glacier Diesel Power's Walbro Kit.
It's a good idea to get the 2 micron filter too since the stock filter only goes down to 7-10 microns and the injectors have a 2mic tolerance level. I'm pretty sure the FASS system only filters to the stock levels.
Having said that, I just installed a Holley Blue pump inline with the stock in-tank pump to hold me over for a while. It performs great and gives about 25psi at idle and 14psi at WOT. The only downside to using the Holley is they don't usually last all that long when used in this type of application.

I think I'm going to be ordering this one soon. I'm also going to put an fleetguard inline filter while I'm at it.
Meat_; Did you ever figure anything out?
I decided yesterday to go with the FASS with filter. Gillett Diesel has about the same price as anywhere online. They stock the nonfilter version but they have to order the filter version, they told me it only takes a couple days to get it in.
Hopefully I'll be ordering one next Monday

I put a fass on mine after going through 5 lift pumps and 1 injector pump. So far it's been able to keep up with the edge comp.

Any of those 5 lift pumps aftermarket or were they all stock replacements?

They were all stock replacements from Gillette Diesel, the only modification I had was an Edge EZ. I was replacing them about every 6 months, at least they were under warranty after the first one.

I got my FASS system in the mail yesterday. I guess I got a project for saturday.
I put it on today. MAN did it make a difference. I guess that my stock pump was as bad off as I thought it was.
My truck has always been the loudest 24v motor I have ever been around, until today... it now sounds like every other 24v. I often wondered if it was loud because it was lean..... Oh and I saw smoke come out of my tail pipe for the first time in about 8 months.
The good news is, it still fires right up..... hard starting with a good lift pump is a sign that your IP has been damaged
