Blue Chip VP44

Anyone had any experience with these yet? I believe they're supposed to be the Bosch redesigned VP44 for Fedex trucks - new, heat-tolerant electronics, a new housing, and some new fittings for the timing piston. I've also heard that Blue Chip will hotrod one with SO/HO parts.

I threw an 0216 code sometime in the last week, after 40K miles. Good fuel pressure, no symptoms at all, just came up on the reader when I checked it. So I'm starting to think about what to do. I'm not fooling with warranty or DC service techs, and I don't want another problem VP44 - "fix and forget".

there is a website i looked at about a month ago where a guy sprays some kind of gunk on the module that is suppose to be some wort of heat sink material where it pulls the heat from the module and he did a few other mods to the VP 44 pump im not sure of the site i cant find it in history that far back.
