best chip??? new turbo and injectors???

I was wondering if anybody had an opinion on what chip is the best. I have the comp box right now but i don't know if i like it. Is the smarty better or what box/programer is the best?

Also i am looking to get a new single turbo and injectors. I am looking to sit right at 450 Hp and was wordering what turbo and injectors to purchase. I was thinking 150 injectors w/ a 62 /12 turbo.

Any suguestions would help thanx.

What do you do with the Truck? The quadzilla Adrenaline box is still in beta testing, but should be released soon.

I have the Comp box with Mach 1.5's and dyno'd 421 HP on a dynojet. I think 150 hp injectors with a 62/12 will give you over 450 with the comp. That is the set up I'm looking to do also.

Do you have a stock or aftermarket turbo?

I think you should keep ure comp and try out a setup like diesel_burner has. If you do a lot of towing I would not go with anything too crazy for injectors.

My turbo is stock for now, with a turbo that flows a little better it should keep the EGT's in check. Towing with the stock is not bad, plenty of power but if the hill is really step then you have to keep a loose eye on the EGT guage.

Any fueling box isn't going to be enough of an "improvement" over a Comp to justify the cost, imo.

There are other, better, ways to spend that money. Like head studs or something...

See my sig. Close to DDP Stage 4 injectors. When I dyno'd in August, I hit 356 HP on injectors only.

The nice thing about the Comp style boxes is the ability to adjust the power on the fly.

MSquare and I have both been down the road with some of the "other" products out there and I think we have both come back to Edge.

For me, it was about driveability.

Dave hit it right on the head! On the fly and the touchy throttle sent me back to Edge.

If you want a good laugh and a little more info, click on Dave's "Stocky" video in his signature.

good video. I think i will keep the comp box but need to know what size injectors and how big of turbo to get? Any sugestions? 62/12 62/14 or 64/12. I gotta find a happy medium because i can always turn the box down when towing or around town but crank it up when needed.

So many options!

I would try to be real honest about what you want the truck to do. From there it's easier to make a decision.

I would say 75 HP injectors and a 62/14 should do ya right.
