Fermilab is developing a Proton Improvement Plan (PIP) to increase throughput of it's the proton source. The plan addresses hardware modifications to increase repetition rate and improve beam loss while ensuring viable operation of the proton source through 2025. The first phase of the PIP will enable the Fermilab proton source to deliver 1.8·1017 protons per hour by mid-2013. As part of this initial upgrade, Fermilab plans to install a new front-end consisting of dual H ion sources and a 201 MHz pulsed RFQ. This talk will present beam studies measurements of this new front-end as well as present new beam instrumentation upgrades for the Fermilab linac.
