Been researching this for a few days. $130 for the home brewed is a heck of a lot better then $200 (PSC ram+hardware) or $1000+ for a complete assist system. Is there a stock pump from another application that can be used for more fluid flow? I'm going to mod my pump but if it starts to whine I'd like a cost effective solution.
Here's the 3/8 plugs, in case you have to block it off. It would probably be wise to buy one extra hose and fittings to have spares (surplus center prices won't kill the wallet)
