AD100, its a simple install, has good filtration, and will handle all the performance goodies you have no problem! Also you don't have to drop the tank as there is no pick up tube for the 100, and it still has the water seperator, and fuel filter!

If you still have the fuel pump on the back of the filter housing get the Airdog 100. You will not have to drop the tank to plumb it all up. If you have already had yours updated to the intank unit. Leave it alone. It will be fine.

my pump is located on the back of the fuel filter housing.so i guess i leave it in tact?do you still use the stock fuel filter? or does it start to affect the flow rate with the airdog filters already doing this task?

If you draw from the stock canister you still need to drop the tank to plumb the AD's return to it as well or you'll have problems when you get below 3/8 of a tank, been there done that.
If I were you I'd use a Raptor, you can hook that up to your stock canister in the tank, no rerturn line to worry about, use the stock filter (for the water seperator) and add a 2 micron filter between it and the Cp3. That's what I'd do it I was doing it again.
