Performance upgrades for 2003's

Have any of you guys heard of a way to extract more power from the new motors yet?? I am anxious to get this truck up to the power level of my 2002. Are injectors available?? Any rumors??

Talked to Mark at TST on friday, he said they were making big power with Gen 3 stuff, but I didn't ask about availability. I could tell it was consuming all his time by the amount of time he was talking of the dyno.

Re:Performance upgrades for 2003's

The only guys that appear to have a box ready to roll is Diesel Dynamics (developed in conjunction with Edge). Purely unsubstantiated rumor has this box developing power with modifying the injection pressures only.<br><br>TST and Edge are working furiously on getting their products to market, but as with any R&amp;D project, they can't really give a release date. Mark was telling me about some of their power gains with box only, and its impressive, although similar to box-only gains on a VP44 equipped truck.<br><br>Rod

You guys will probably be &quot;passing&quot; all of the &quot;old&quot;<br>Dodge Diesels before long! <br><br>--------<br>John_P

DDs web site has some interesting hp numbers. I also heard Edge's auto &quot;test bed&quot; had to get it's tranny bomb'd, so the R&amp;D is moving right along.
