Injector questions
I have a 03 6.0 and I want to replace the injectors. I have been looking around to find which injectors to get. I'm looking for some advice and guidance. I have been looking at some 155's and 175's. One place says I would need a regulated fuel return system for the 175's. If I go with 175's would I need the regulated fuel return system or could I go with out? I'm not looking to make huge power just a little more power. I have a different turbo, and I don't remember which one I have now. It has the EGR delete, and ARP studs.
I had an Edge programer on it but took it of after a year so it doesn't have anything now. I'm looking at getting a SCT programer, and a MBRP 4in exhaust system. I have been reading here that I should get some custom tunes and Eric's name keeps coming up for the tunes.
My biggest questions are. Any injector brands to stay away from? Any you guys recommend? How big can I go with stock fuel system? So can the custom tunes be loaded on the SCT then to the truck?

Same here, I would get OEM injectors and a good tune with an SCT tuner.
If you do get bigger injectors you will need a tune to the most out of them, not sure you can run the stock tune with bigger injectors.
Your best bet would be to contact one of the tune writers and see what they say.

Good advice if you have a decent dealer close by, I don't, they are an hour away and charge list price over the counter plus sales tax.
