| Phoenix Switch-On-The-Fly Chip (DISCOUNTINUED) (Disabled) Power Hungry no longer sells the Phoenix/TS chip, but if you need custom tuning we can recommend a few really good tuners that will be able to still provide tuning and support for your chip.

Ok that is what I thought But i figured i would ask someone with more experience than me with this engine. Is there any way to get higher oil pressure without going with a dual HPOP setup? The reason I ask is because I am working with a limited budget here, but I want to get all the potential gains the tunes have to offer. I don't want to end up with half-*** performance because I can't afford to do it right.

There are many HPOP options nowadays.
Diesel site sells a upgraded pump called the Adrenalin, and seems to be having good results. They also make an the Overdrive unit which basically bolts to the front of the HPOP and turns it tad bit faster. There are Stealth pumps available from Stecher Performance, these pumps come in a few different flavors from mild to wild and can be upgraded in the future if you needs change. They are VERY nice pieces but come at a cost. Other that changing HPOP's you can switch to a Hybrid injector which uses less oil than the stock split shot will. Hybrid also come in many different flavors, and you will see a sizable increase in HP's. You can run these injectors with a stock HPOP that is in good condition. I think what ever you choose the price will be roughly the same.....IIRC.

One other thing, whenever I do end up being able to afford a good hpop setup, would installing it on an engine that is not heavily modded cause any damage? I don't want to go too far with it and realize that I'm pushing more oil pressure than the rest of the engine can handle

You can run the most insane high pressure oil setup you can afford (even with stock injectors) without hurting the engine. Tuning the injection control pressure regulator would be crazy, but it could be done.

I ran my Dual Stealth HPOP's with stock engine and injectors will no issues. The only thing that took time was getting the ICP Duty Cycle dialed in. It would spike pretty high sometimes. This was with Elite's tuning, but I am sure everyone has it pretty much figured now.

so to take "full advantage" of the 140hp setting.. could you run an adrenaline or a modded 17 hpop with stock injectors? also would you require additional tuning to compensate for the new hpop?
