Don't want to rain on your parade Txs but what's your fuel pressure like with just your puck on there? I know mine gets pretty low with just the puck and I was thinking if you add that quad your gonna be dumping more fuel. Also, what about your clutch? I'm going for a set of 100hp nozzles on my truck and figure I'll need a FASS(more fuel flow/pressure) set up and not to long after that I'll be buying a clutch cause the stocker will be toast. I have not experienced it but what I have heard most people say the stock clutch barely holds stock hp.

The quad don't do anything with timing does it? If it just adds fuel cool, can't add timing I believe the puck does that already. Sounds pretty cool to me except your gonna have to be watchin your fuel pressure and clutch. Do you have a pyro on your truck?? Not sure I saw one in your sig. Before the puck my egt's would typically run 600 and on unloaded pulls up good size hills 800 and floor boarded maybe 850's. With my puck I can hit 1000 degrees pretty quickly so you'll have to consider what the qaud is gonna do to your egt's. You may end up needing more air, adjustable wastegate etc. Just some things to consider before you add that power and find out the clutch slips, your turbo is on the verge of a meltdown and you've got the towns fastest mosquito defense system.

I'd get the pyro on there first and the holley. You'll be well into the 5psi zone with the quad. As I said, as long as the quad is a fueling module only you'll be alright cause your puck does timing. You may have to do some wastegate adjusting, but not to sure. I know I'll have to when I ad the nozzles on mine. You'll just have to watch your egt's and experiment and see.

The box you are looking at will work perfect with the puck. You will want to keep an eye on the fuel pressure but, I think that goes without saying even on a stock truck. These lift pumps have a pretty bad rep to start with.

The box you are looking at is a fueling only box so you will be fine.

Tsx your clutch will start screming at you, mine will slip with my mods and iam looking at geting a timing box to go with my XZT. i can pull my fuel pis from 25 down to 18 with rv275 and the xzt egt at 1100 to high 1200unloaded, loaded at will drop to 12, and 1300 and up loaded, so a better lift pump is and gauges are a must.
