Get them gauges on there asap. Then i would do the trans. Its the best mod i ever did to my autos. Then form there you can put a tst comp on there and turbo and have one heck of a truck.

first you need to decide how much hp approx. you are wanting before you decide on a turbo, you can get a big single that will produce similar power to twins for cheaper, BUT your egt's will most likely be higher, and the spool time will be a lot slower thus the advantage of having twin turbo's, if you are not worried too much about a little slower spool, there are a lot of big turbos out there making huge power numbers, the silver bullet is one of them and there is plenty more.

With a 2wd, you will probably have traction issues as you continue to up the power. Especially with a built automatic, it really puts the power down. Most guys that occasionally drag race their 2wd are running big single turbos. The single's spool slower allowing you to get rolling before the big power hit that will cause you to spin.

Do the trans first all the power in the world is useless if you cant get it to the ground.
