Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
ok , i'll post the pics tomorrow , but i installed my BOMBed banjo bolts today , they did make a difference . note that the filter in my housing during this test needs to be replaced , but it did let the pressure come up to 13psi when i clicked the key and let the pump run for 25 secs .
i put on my pressure gauge ( factory spx miller gauge , made by ashcroft , has pressure and vacuum scale) and went out , with 275's and VA i saw 11 psi at idle , dropped down to almost nothing when i would punch it and it came down fairly quick . cruising on the interstate at 70 - 75 mph it was rock solid at 6 psi , if i hit it, it would drop down to nothing . turned on the power edge and forget it , dropped down to nothing in a hurry did this in level 2 and hot 3, didn't pay attention while just cruising with the edge on , but i think it was still around 5 psi at a steady pace .
i did have a BOMBed banjo bolt at the injection pump while i was doing the above test as it was the easiest to get to .
i replaced all the rest of the banjo bolts with my modified versions and went for a ride , idle psi was still 11 psi , i had removed the VA , cruise was 8-9 psi ( it was dark and used interior light to see it while driving ) if i floored it it would drop to 5 psi , no lower .
i drove like this for about 5 miles , pulled over and put on the VA . idle was 11 psi , cruise was 8 psi and when i floored it it would not fall below 5 psi .
i turned on the PE and it dropped to close to nothing , but not as low as before and went down slower , i will test this again in the morning on the way into work .
results show a 2 to 3 psi increase at cruise and it would not fall to zero at WOT and i was doing well OVER the posted speed limit

.
this is probably one of the best things a KISS believer can do , will it help with the lift pump problem ? i doubt it , but it will make sure you have plenty of fuel to the injection pump no matter how you load the engine .
i'll post pics of my moded bolts tomorrow , i have posted the sizes of both stock and my mods but will repost them with the pics .
next will be adding a lower pressure pump to feed the stock lift pump , still using the factory supplied lines , i may even do a test of just moving the stock pump with its wiring and banjo bolts to see what effect it has .
