New injector pickin'

Alright guys im back on here asking questions again lol.. So tax time is coming around again and im gonna have a little extra money to throw at the beasthere in the next month or so but im needing a little help picking the best bang for the buck and supporting mods to hold it without screwing something up. So my question is should i go with some stage two injectors or the stage 3 238/80 hybrids? Iv heard alot of good about them both and i know ill be ordering them from Jody at Dp just wondering wat u guys would do and what else i would need to support either one of these i already have a 38r turbo and a t500 hpop and will be doing a riffraff fuel rail crossover and oil crossover and a pre pump kit from strictly buttttttttttttttt my ultimate question is what kinda fuel supply do i need for this set up cause dp tuners site is suggesting an air dog and things like that with anything past stage ones just wantin to get some second oppinions before pulling the trigger on this thanks in advance guys .

Lots of guys run the stage2's or 238's with just the stock fuel system and FRX from Clay with your other upgrades. It should put you in the mid 400HP range. Later if you want more you can feed it more fuel with other upgrades. What are you shooting for HP. You got a good start reading your signature so talk to your tuner.

The pmr delete is just a joke between me and tncoalroller lol. Gotta swap to forged rods if you want rid of them. Your 97 should already have forged rods? Sorry to hijack your thread chris!

Some guys have had good luck with PRM rods. Alot of poeple say its in the tuning. But forged is always the way to go.

Its more of a personal choice. I'm going with 200/ either 30 or 80 over. I've seen what it can do and like it. A lot of guys run the 238's and I'm sure they at great. Just your choice, Jody can do both so you'll going to have to trust him on your tuning. Good luck and report back when you decide. You will smile I bet on either way you go.

The 200's would easily get you in the desired HP range, but I have seen 180's do that and more. Ask me how I know.
