My mods are finally taking shape, so time for the longevity items. Any opinions on which should come first, the new filter head or the lift pump. Or just wait until I can afford both? Did anyone come across a filter head/lift pump combo that will fit in the OEM filter head spot?

If your filter is not leaking start with the lift pump that is MIA :lol:

Good suggestion, filter isn't leaking yet... I'm worried about the air issues, so I'm also going to swap fuel line connections...

The lift pump eliminates air issues.

Pressurize fuel and no vacuum leaks.

If in warranty and the fuel manager head is leaking, Mr MoService will replace it with the new and improved version, so check for leaks - replace the fuel line connections if you stay with the oem system with CP3 lift pump, otherwise the auxiliary lift pump will solve suspected air leaks in the connectors
