Which injectors and cp3 combo?

I am wanting to light this silver bullet up now. The problem is I wanna do it and still not smoke out the whole city! hahahahah. I was thinking 90's and a stage 3. I wanna be around 600ish in hp and still be able to drive it. I'd love to hear what the 66 guys are running. Thanks.

When you go to a stage 3 CP3 its not hard to make 600 ponies, this was told to me today by a VERY VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE CP3 builder!! You can get away with alittle bigger sticks with that Silver Bullet!! Maybe some 2.5's or so......

I was doing 580hp to the tires with stock injectors, stage 2 cp3, and silver bullet 66. Everything else was stock on the motor.

I had a tst/smarty 4.2 beta stack at the time. I also have a 2005 325hp seires motor.

A set of Dons flux 2's and a stage 2 cp3 should get you there. I know you have an 2003 truck so you may need to go a hair bigger on the injectors. A stage 2 cp2 will keep you with that size of injector with no problems and save you some cash too.

I would get the stg 3 and forget it. Also 120 stix would prob spool it up nice. You will have to roll into it regardless if you don't want the smoke. I would say you will be around 625-650 then for sure.

I make 636 with my mods, and the arson kit keeps my rail pressure at 26-27k down the track. I do have the revo with adjustable rail pressure, tho.

If you get that stage three, you'll be golden.

What's the stage three advertised at? 700hp?

My sticks spool my turbo nice, too.

He does have an 03.. how much does that play in to the horsepower numbers and performance for his setup?? his truck is very smokey, esp since the bullet.. worried injectors bigger than 90's will be un-drivable smoke.. how would arson and 90's work?

When I had my stock sticks and my current turbo, this thing smoked something terrible, and it was a dog. The bigger sticks help lite the turbo faster. I am a little smokey if I lug it, or if I'm not careful when pulling a trailer, but other than that, I stay pretty clean.

Not sure how much the 03 factor plays... I know that the injectors were different, I think maybe the pistons were cut differently, too?

SO Erik at Left Coast Diesel just dynoed last night with a stock Cp3 w/Arson kit, Flux 2.5's and Super B Special and a Extreme Power Puck and made 631hp with 1300* temps.

He has towed a two car trailer with this set-up several times and says that its great with no temp problems and the power is always there.

I would suggest a the biggest pump you can afford and throw some Flux 2.5+ at it and 600hp+ should be no problem with good spooling and good temps for towing.

that thing has to be cookin, if hes drawing that much heat... with one pull he was 1300 wow.. Roebuck9's runs hot, but it may hit 1200 very few times.. towing, it isnt much different than my twin setup..

I thought 1300* was very low???? Am I missing something? I would love to have a rig producing 600+hp with WOT dyno runs at 1300*, on a single charger.

Wicked diesels 90's ordered with just the arson III kit. If the arson kit doesnt cover it I will upgrade to the modified pump! Now im tryin to find some valve springs at a good price to do it all at one time.
