Need advise on upgrades
Need advise on upgrades
Have owned my truck for 3 years and love her. Am pleased with the ability of these trucks but have decided to go further with my upgrades than my programmer and intake. I have decided to upgrade my turbo and injectors and want some advise. I do tow regularly and usually it's heavy. I want my EGT's to be manageable and not a lot of smoke. The truck is my daily driver and my end goal is the 450-500 mark. The truck has 320,000 and a recently added South Bend dual disk. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Gauges....make sure you have gauges installed ,especially fuel psi. Second, go for quality components. Injectors, I'd look at Mach1 or DDP...look on here and I'm sure you can find good turbo upgrade options.
Look out wallet..... the power bug has bitten again.
with all I have in my sig I'm somewhere between 500-525. I would talk to a few well known Diesel performance shops, Do a post in the Towing section on here since you do tow and tow heavy. take it from someone who has broke things and spent alot on fixing because of EGT's. Do some homework and reading up on this. do it once and do it right. you have to find a nice balance of air and fuel to be able to tow and not have to tow having both eyes on the pyro. That isn't fun. Plus you dont want a turd of a turbo that doesn't spool well low that you are 007 with a smoke screen. Look into getting studs too.
