I ran a walbro 255LPM pump on my 02 24v and had an adjustable fuel pressure regular. I set my fuel pressure at 28psi. The set-up worked pretty decent. Way cheaper than the fass, I had two fass units that failed on me over the years. The fass filters are also prone to getting road trash damage.

You can also use the factory fuel filter/heater and use the stock fuel lines going the VP44.

My 02 had 300HP DPP injectors (6X14's, 260 bar pop, they hazed pretty good in the cold), edge comp box and home made twins garrett GT3782R over a S475. Worked pretty nice.

A Raptor 150 is a good option for cheaper if you don't want the extra filtration that the Fass or Airdog systems provide. The factory fuel system provides adequate filtration for the injection pump and injectors, but the fuel pump is prone to failure as we all know. An upgraded fuel pump is all you really need.
