how to get 450hp

I got everything in my sig, and want this hp goal. I know about the gsk, injectors, turbo, and all that i just dont know what combinations work good. I mean what injectors go good with what turbo to get me my hp goal. Twins arnt an option for a turbo so this makes it a bit harder. Money isnt that big of an issue here either. Please name the products and where you got them.
thanks

Get ya some 5x.012's and a 64mm turbo and that should easily get you to your target.

I think you'd be much happier with a Super B or similar.

just remember those 38s are gonna kill the hp on a dyno. my setup gets 475-ish on a stock height truck with 265s, but I pulled 435hp 1000lbs of torque with 37s

The bigger tires might actually help you because they will load your engine a little better due to the mechanical disadvantage of your truck on the dyno as most dynos can't properly load a diesel.

I'd say head studs, 5x.012's, 4k gsk, and a 62/68/14 from Engineered Diesel. The 64 might be a little tough to tow with if you went with a 64/71 or you might get surging with a 64/65. As soon as you move the fuel plate, you will need to get your auto built up.
