Looking for suggestions. Lots of info here, but hard to find a specific good parts combo for a relatively minor build.  My daily driver 2wd 5spd would be a lot more fun with a bit more power. I'm thinking 100hp over stock. Just installed a Valair 13" clutch. Have a wastegate actuator regulator that just showed up in the mail. Truck has a 4" exhaust, gauges,  Smarty S04, an air dog factory replacement lift pump (100 gph) mounted to the frame by the tank. Was given a K&N cold air intake but not yet  installed.  Any thoughts on the least expensive way to reach my power goal? 600 hp would be great, but my budget is very limited at the moment and it is my daily driver. 17.8 1/4 mile times are down right embarrassing. Just looking to spice up my daily commute. If there's an article that covers this, I didn't see it. I have done some research, but most of what I've seen is aimed at heavy towing or all out power.  Thanks in advance.

  • 600 hp vp is not a budget build   7 x ..010 injectors and a quad will get you to 500 if you have the right turbo.

  • Replacing the smarty with a Quadzilla Adrenaline will get you exactly what you're looking for.  Adding in the wiretap will help tremendously.

    I agree,  but... if he only did 1/2" from pump to stock fuel filter, he's choking the flow everywhere else. If it's 1/2" all throughout psi swing will be much less. Gmo

I'd be the first one with my multi-tool pulling the intake boot and looking at the turbo saying, "Naw, nevermind engine been dusted out... What else do you have?"
