everyone has different opinions on this (i've read a lot of forums/posts/listened to more youtubes than i care to admit), good points in several camps... but since i intend to keep this truck until the doors fall off, i've decided to install a high volume oil pump and mds delete to potentially eliminate known problem areas.
the oil pump i'd be crazy enough to do myself, but not the mds delete... and since i'd rather just do it all together i'm wondering if anyone knows of a good shop with dodge/ram experience in eastern kentucky. this would be the first job, ideally somewhere that can dyno tune as well since the next project is long tubes/x-pipe/tune. few local shops, but don't honestly trust them to do more than alignment...other bolt ons i do myself, this is just too into the scary zone for me personally.
also wondering what thoughts are... i know the hellcat pump is a common option, but given scarcity/lead time on oem parts, has anyone got strong opinions on melling? 20% more volume over hellcat, seems like a reputable brand, around the same price, easier to get. if you have done this and have good or bad feedback on mds delete kit/etc happy to listen as well.
thanks for any advice!
