issues and injector questions

i have a 96 7.3 with a 3 down pipe to 3.5 back exhaust 6637 intake filter set up ccv mod and just got a intercooler and some pipes what kinda power would a simple setup like this make over stock?

and what could it make with a good tune. i was wondering what would be a good upgrade it has stock injectors rite now i read something about using superduty injectors?

and i had a engine light come on and truck wouldnt start unless it was throttled replaced the fuel filter started fine light wont shut off used a craftsman code reader it said nothing autoxray said light on and wouldnt show a code and when i went to run a scan it would shut my truck off

if you are gonna spend money on injectors, get some stage ones. stage ones with a chip can give you 100hp over stock. as far as the code reader.... only some will be able to pull codes from a PSD.

i have a 96 ps, i have a 6 pisition chip d66 turbo 17* hpop and i had some sd injecters from a crashed sd laying around so i put them in its a way diffrent truck , but iam doing rosewood stage II.5 arter my trany swap, if you do put sd injecters in you will have 2 have a chip or it runs like crap! trust me! then do 17*hpop next, with all i have done to my truck the boys at beans are saying i have around 350 or 360rw hp that is just a rough guess , since every time i get ready to take a trip down to beans and dyno it i brake some thing! iam shooting for 450 480 is what i would like but you gotta $$$$ to play

With your mods on there you might be seeing 230-240hp (215 stock). A good chip with stock injectors might get you 300hp. Good chip and Stage I's closer to 350hp.

I would go to Jim at Rosewood Diesel for injectors. Great prices, great service, and our forum sponsor. Rosewood Diesel Shop

I wouldn't bother with superduty injectors. Not worth the hassle or the money.

Can't help with the codes...
