You need a performance module that needs to tap the VP44 pump wire for more fueling. Any heavy fueling box will need to tap the pump, either with a t-tap, posi-tap, or a stealth cover. My Quadzilla Xzillaraider taps the pump, as can the Edge Comp, Juice, etc. I Recommend the stealth cover for a positive connection, or soldering the connection (I am terrible at soldering, though) to the pump wire. Do not believe that using a stealth cover will save your VP-44 warranty, unless your builder specifically ok's tapping the wire or using the cover. I hear they are very well aware of the covers and know what to look for and how deep to get it to discover tapping the pumps.

I forgot the benefits: Depending on the box, the smile from ear to ear will be very difficult to remove everytime you move the vertical pedal on the right!!!

I have run both and I like the stealth cover. Its alot cleaner look and alot better connection IMO. For the price it is, I think its worth it if you want a nice look and good connection.
