Great looking truck, btw. do you not have a chip/tuner currently. I didn't see one listed in your profile. If not, I wouldn't put money into injectors yet. Get a DP tuner, heck even if you have a chip and you don't have a DP, get a DP tuner! It's that good.

Before I get injectors, I'll do new Turbo and then Dual HPOP's w/ Injectors, after BTS Tranny of course

No.. I don't think you need a new turbo. What are you trying to do? More performance or do you have an issue you're trying to resolve?

The ATS housing got rid of all my surge. I'm really happy with it. Something the ATS also rids of the "relief" sound once you let off of it. I missed the blow off noise at first, but now not at all.

You can use the WW and ATS in combination together. Kris (stroken it) reported having better results w/ the ATS and the Stock Wheel in combination with each other.

You and I are about equal in the power department. Right now I'm making mods to handle the increase of power to come. IE: tranny cooler, 6.0 InterCooler, and then BTS time!
