If you have your chip reburned with a tow program, you should be able to keep them under control, but you may want to save up for a intercooler.
have you looked into diy injectors? save you some $$

DPP's reman injectors are Roasewood diesel who is DIY. I would just go straight to Rosewood/DIY for injectors. Bean's also has good injectors

X2 on Rosewood/DIY/dpppower. I have the economy build stage II's and they are awesome. I wouldn't go anywhere else for sticks ever.

If you get II's definately get a 6.ooh cooler and install it. I did the II's and was afraid to tow but the clutch went south then I had to do uppipes and I needed cooler tubes and HEY the H2E kit comes with all of that. so shazzam. Here I am with an H2e going in and can't wait till I hook up the cooler.

Anyway you may be alright with II's and a cooler but mind your gauges and your clutch/tranny. I plan on bigger intakes as well that will more than suit my purpose for keeping it cool.

All I am building is a pulling moochine. I wanna pass those d*** Cummins' and smile when I do it with a bigger load than they have. I don't know but maybe it is personal, I ran a cummins up a hill pulling campers and I did well till we got to the top and well... that is all I have to say about that. Next timed buddy...
