I'd like to get around 300-350 hp. The truck is my daily driver and i really like it, im hoping that with that amout of power it will still be the all around ride i like (decent mpg, low smoke, reliability, ect.) without too much in the way of mods like new clutch/and or tranny. Anyways, the only person ive talked to about this is Lenny at Dynomite Diesel Performance, he suggested new injectors and and a turbo upgrade. Any and all input welcomed. Thanks.

 

Sell it and buy an '06.

 

Bigger injectors, HTT Stage III or IV compressor upgrade, 16, or smaller if you don't tow, hot side turbo housing, and an ASA Modifieds intake upgrade might get you there.

 

And make payments for the rest of your life, no thanks, and besides who wants a truck that looks just like everyone else's?

 

Dont forget that water/meth is worth quite a bit, and good cleaning fun!

 

Say you had 16 housing, Stage IV, bigger injectors, smokies' pin, 3200 spring, big intake and 4" turbo back.

Now you add water/meth, how much more hp does that get you?

Thanks,
JP.

 

Lenny's suggestion will get you there. POD's, a stage III or IV HTT compressor, and an Old Smoky power pin will put you right around 350 HP if the timing is advanced enough and you have a good fuel supply.

 

Around 40 HP until the head gasket or the turbo pops from the 55 psi of boost you'll see when the water/meth kicks in. A wastegated housing is a must with big injectors and water/meth.

 

Thanks for the replies. I had a problem with the old smokey. Wasnt sliding properly, so kept the stock , ever hear of that before? If so what sort of remedies?

 

Sounds like you got a defective one that wasn't hard enough.

 

Thanks, problem with machine shop or something i guess. Anyways, gonna try it again, hopefully its not something in the pump binding. Previous owner had mentioned something about a problem with fuel pin before but i dont know what he did about it. Said he was losing power, had it put on the dyno and everything seem fine, but would lose power under a load going uphill.

 

Parts or payments, nobody drives for free. I'm looking for the same numbers but I think I may wind up on the short end with 190's. But I liked the price and they are a little more managable under load than POD,s. March 10 is coming and in goes the DTT T/C and Valve body.
