How much $ you want to let loose of? It can get pricey.
Gauges
Efuel
6637
Good exhaust
Good hpop
Stixs (160-0)
Proper tuning
That's the cheap route
If you have 2500$ step up to a t4 s366
Or do 180-80s and a s369
Then u need headstuds,valve springs,pushrods
At that point you had better know your truck. Not many a shop will have much to do with you. They can be temperamental and may not be for everyone.
Then you will get to spend 4-5000$ on a good trans...
I just want to wake it up 30 lbs boost should do it. I'm trying to keep it to a minimum but still have some good gains. I may be out of my mind to invest any more in this truck.........
What these guys said. But especially what Jarrett said. I was making the same boost with Stage 1s, T500, and a stock turbo. Efuel and intercooled though FWIW
Awesome save me money! I did go through the Sigs but its nice to have more of a conv on it. So I can just keep my turbo and go up on sticks and fuel stuff. do I need the ARP and Springs? 99% of the trucks life will be 45mph or under empty. 1% pulling the toy hauler 35 miles to the dunes.
From what I have read, you really only need to upgrade springs and studs if you're going to be pushing 40psi or more... Or you just want to get the heavier duty for peace of mind.
Well that sounds good. so I just need to get a new trans or will the stock one handle the new power? I understand the life could be cut short with hard use..
