Lift pump like a FASS. The stockers are known to crap out and kill your injection pump. Spending acouple hundrednow will save you a couple thousand later.

Welcome aboard brotha !!

Lift pump as Jake mentioned, and also some gauges, although you'll probably be getting those with your Edge, but if not, gauges and a lift pump.

30 sounds WAAAAY too high !!! I think you may have a bad gauge on your hands.

Welcome to DF, I would agree and say get the FASS as well. I think after gauges,aeroturbine muffler and a CAI that my next step will be a FASS as well.

you might already have an aftermarket pump if your hitting 30PSI.
