Truck seems less responsive after airdog install

We just installed an Airdog 150 in a '06 Megacab manual. I'm running a Hot Edge Juice/attidude stacked with a pressure only Quadzilla race box. Of course I was starving for fuel with the stock lift pump. After installing the Airdog the top end power is awesome. But it seems a little more sluggish on bottom end than before. Is this common? If not, what could be wrong?

Sorry, I don't have a FP gauge installed yet. It is ordered, just don't have it yet.

With all the mods could you be over fueling now???? The stock lift pump only gave so much so you would run lean. Now with the air dog you are not running lean but fat on the low end???

if she's running "fat" on the low end he would be getting a lot of smoke and higher EGTs .... any reports of that?
