a problem with fuel pump....maybe

i have a 2006 dodge ram 2500. my mods are a smarty with the revo tune set on 7 right now. a 5 inche exhuast from the turbo back a afe intake tube and a sb cold air intake. and a airdog 150 pump.
yesterday while goin down the highway my truck had a hiccup. and lost power and my check engine light came on so i pulled off the interstate and check the code and it was a po148 code. cleared it and drove alittle long. on my way back home the truck startdoin it again. it only does it when the truck goes into a load like goin up hill or pulln a trailer or puttin my foot into the peddle. i noticed that my fuel pump is shuttin off also. the pump has only been on my truck maybe 3 months. it was brand new when installed. ive checked wires and dont have anything loose.
ive thought maybe i didnt route the feed linefrom the tank to the pump the right way. ive thought bc its been warmer out that the pump is sucking the hose shut when the truck needs more fuel.
please if anyone can help im up for any ideas i can try before i call pure flow

the 150 should give you plenty of fuel for level 7 i would check your fuel filters to make sure they are ok. also i know on the fass systems the fuel pump relays can go bad so if the air dog is the same it might be an issue. it might be electrical related check out your connections.

did you 45 the end of the draw tube, and held it off the bottom of the tank a quarter inch.if not, it may not draw enough fuel under hard excelleration.if it is to close to the bottom.Im sure you did, but if not run fuel line straight to cp3
