Build Up thoughts

OK i have a 2002 dodge 2500 with 3.55 and automatic tranny. currently it has stage 2 air intake and the banks boost elbow.my idea of a build up includes the following: Mach 1.6 injectors, edje juice with attitude, new valve body for the tranny, fass fuel sytem, 4 inch exhaust, and the stealth cover. looking at spending around 3000 for all of this just wondering if some of u have different ideas or not. and what i can expect out of this build up. also if im not mistaken if i get the stealth cover for the ip i dont need to pierce the wire correct? how does it work?

That's a great combo!

For an additional margin, you'd want to upgrade the turbo. The 2002 automatic trucks have a VERY restrictive tiny turbo. For a cheap but effective upgrade, install the turbo from a manual trans truck or an older auto trans truck (same turbo- HX35) in place of the HY35 you have on there now. Also, go up a size in turbine housing to the 14cm from the 12 if you don't have an upgrade torque converter.

The tiny turbo is a big limitation of your current setup, and you won't be able to turn up the Juice/Attitude combo with the M1.6 injectors.

You could skip the injectors for now and save them for when you had a slightly bigger turbo installed.

The stealth covers make the connection inside the pump. If you are concerned about warranty coverage, I'd go with a milder power enhancement that doesn't connect to the pump. You can then compensate with larger injectors. Of course, when you get a bigger turbo, you'll want bigger injectors-- or you can run the bigger injectors with the tiny turbo and deal with the heat and smoke.

where can i find these turbine housings at. or is there any other aftermarket turbo to put on to it. i liked the fact that the attitude has the defueling if the egt get to high, my main reason for getting it. and it also combines all my gauges in one. with the stealth cover wouldnt it be as easy as to take it off and bring it in if it needs repairs? newbie at this. sorry for so many questions
