Which injectors

Was looking at the baby swamps and rosewood stage 1's. Between the 2 which would you all recommend? Swamp allows me to mail in my ts 6pos chip to be reburned. Would I notice a big difference in power? Is there any other supporting mods that I would need to do? I will have gauges. I already have a turbo back straight pipe and the 6637 intake.

An intercoler, it'll help control egts. They will get higher if you're pushing your rig with the heavier injectors. The gauges will allow you to monitor it but the IC mitigates it. It's not needed as long as you are ok with driving it within acceptable egts

Rosewood, since I've seen mixed reviews with swamps. You can get away with the stock fuel, and turbo. Just got to get an EGT gauge and Tranny cooler if you have an auto. Check my Sig it works great.

Rosewood has a very strong reputation around here. Jim is always willing to talk you through any questions you may have

I will say I've personally drove a truck with rosinwood diesel stage ones and there top quality I also have baby swamp injectors in my personal truck and there definitely a good upgrade for someone wanting a very good mild upgrade and you will notice a a very big difference in power trust me and a ic is a good idea for sure but egts are manageable without them but you half to watch them pulling hard for sure

Rosewood for the win.
I however would never put big injectors in without e-fuel. Lots do but I strongly disagree.
Yes you need proper tuning for them to work properly to potential and ic and gauges for max benefit.

I'd prioritize an intercooler over efuel when going up in injector size. Efuel is highly recommended but takes second to an intercooler. I'd recommend rosewood over swamps as well. Swamps is also a great company.
