i'm about to get my first cummins ( the one thats listed in my signature), i got a little extra cash to spend and i would like to do some upgrades and i'm looking for some suggestions anything would be helpfull and as far as what i'm looking for i don't tow much, it's gonna be mostly my daily driver anything else just ask, thanks for any help you can give me

 

Gauges, 3 or 4 gsk, quick spool exhaust manifold,90+hp injectors, timing bump, better turbo like a 62 ,

 

KDP probably still needs to be done on it.

 

And while you are tinkering with the KDP, set up the timing to 16° and as the list is above.

 

wow thanks for the quick response's, first how hard is the KDP? i have looked into that before but never heard much about it, also with that listed above what kind of horsepower and torque numbers am i looking at? and how much am i looking to spend... sorry for all the questions i'm kinda new to the diesel scene

 

Turbo and that can vary from $800-$1800 depending what you want to run. Injectors can be had used from $300-800 for new.. GSK kits are around $100. Exhaust manifold is an optional item IMHO, but around $500 or more depending on vendor.

 

how do i know if i have KDP done? and like i said above how hard is it to do?

 

Only 2 ways to know for sure--the first is if it fails and screws your truck up, and the second is to tear into it. There is a search feature on this site that will show you step by step with photos how to fix the kdp.

 

There are great videos on YouTube that show you step by step how to do it

 

any idea what kind of numbers i could be looking at if i do this set up mentioned just a rough guess would be helpful
