I was looking at some 180/xx originally from Full Force but after talking to Dusty at 1023 I’ll be going with the 205/80 hybrids, still from Full Force. They can be tuned down to the same power leve as the 180/xx but if you want to have fun, and have the supporting mods, all you have to do is press a button.

I have no clue if it’s true or not either. When I takes with Dusty he said they have guys up there running 205s up to 3xx or 4xx, whatever some of the monster ones are and they start up just fine in the cold so I’m not really worried about it. If it will affect fuel mileage poorly I have no clue, I’ve read here and elsewhere where guys got better mileage than before, part of that is definitely the new vs old injectors but there has to be more than that. I’m just hoping to get back my cold start abilities and my fuel mileage, I got 14 on the interstate last I measured. Granted it is winter fuel but last time I took a trip I got around 16

Guess I should have scrolled to the bottom of the page or atleast read everything, I never saw it before. What’s the usual preference for tunes now, hydra, 1023, gearhead or jelibuilt? The gearhead is supposed to be the best power with minimal smoke but I thought from reading on other forums some folks felt and might have even proved there’s still a decent chunk of power left on the table if gone that route.
I don't think I would do a 30 nozzle on anything . Get 80 or 100 and have the ability to detune them.
205/30 sounds like a long pulse width. I can't remember who said they were looking at those.

I’m going with Full Force 205/80s. They are remans but from what I’m reading all the wear parts are brand new and flow matched so as far as I’m concerned they’re new. From the reading Ive done and talking to Dusty I can have them tuned as a stock power level then other tunes for use of the available power. There will definitely be a stock power setting on my hydra for if someone else wants/ needs to drive it. I don’t feel like letting someone loose with a 400hp 8300lb truck with “armor” when they’ve never driven something like that.

FWIW when I had my issues with P.I.S. they told me that there was little profit margin for them with new injectors. I'm not sure how true it is or if they were trying to justify their lack of interest in working with me (after I bought the injectors). Since I was sending mine in as cores first they tried to sell me on getting mine remanned but I already knew I was going new.

For me it's multi-day. I work alone and am incredibly OCD so multiply everything by 4 and that's how long it takes me at a minimum. Plus, as Dan V mentioned, there's usually something else you didn't plan on once you dive in.
I'm getting better at it but it still takes me 6 hours to hot torque from start to finish. That's really hoofing it for me (no distractions from the family) and I have a high idle tune.
