I am shooting for 600 and im at stock, I have a long road ahead.
Look at my sig then my hp and trq is at the bottom! You would think that I would be higher but not sure what else to do? I wan't more hp the only thing I can think of is getting 180hp injectors..
Lots of good advice, these guys will steer you in right direction. Do think about whether you will need to pull with your truck in the future. If so, study up on egt's. and yes twins would be best. First Step -- Save a ton of coin.
My numbers were better when I turned my smarty down to #5 tq 4 tm2 rp3, But even at settings 7 and 9 they were in the low 540's. I think maybe the dyno didn't load you maybe because you should have me by 40-50 horse I would think. Did they brake to build boost? was it in sixth? what was your boost? what kind of dyno? when I had mine dynoed it hit 45 psi and on the street it will get to 50psi. My brother could not get his turbo above 40 psi and dynoed 534 but will pull away from me on the street. My guess would be that you didn't get the boost to make the power you should of just like him.

IMO its dumb to get a stage 2 when you can get a stage 3 for a hundred or two more and not have to worry about upgrading to a bigger CP3, but if you can find a decent cp3 cheap get it. Twin CP3's are the way to go, unless your pulling and rules dont allow it.
Are you still running the stock turbo? I have personal experience with a 64 from HTT and a similar set up to what I said. He isn't going to see 60psi and doubtful that he'd see 55 either. He is going to be upper 40s and low 50s and studs are not needed at that point and neither are springs. I don't even have springs in my truck!
My old 03 5 speed peaked at 55lbs but hung around 50 or so for the most part for close to 20k miles before the accident and I never had studs. I would have done them eventually, but since I wasn't driving a 6.0 Ford I wasn't too worried. That was with an II SB66.
Maybe we should ask him how much money he has to spend since he asked how to make 600hp but you seem to want to give him advice on spending enough to make 800hp.
And your right the extra 600bucks does get you 800hp, were do you come up with this? Also, how do you know how much money he has. And before you ask I dont, just giving suggestions, for a sense of security. And talk about spending money were not need o-ring heads with a tow twins.
