I guarantee my truck would make 475 for yes $600 is all i have in it diablo sport predator and a dr. performance 2021, stock intake, stock exhaust not straight piped, stock lift pump, and stock cp3. $4500 is way high 500hp especially with a manual trans., auto is a different story and i am not saying my trans likes it 
as me and shane luvanacummins are about the only crazy fools trying to prove some points with the stock trans. and his just took a dump. If you really want to find out send me a pm with your phone # and i will invite you to attend when i put it on a dyno.

If you can lay down 500 HP for a $600 outlay, it will be a first for me. And I do not believe anything unless I see it. Call me a skeptic, but I have been on this board for WAY too long to know that there is SO much exageration on this site to think otherwise

Not to mention what you just said above. If you can make 500 hp for $600, then why are you "prescribing" the above list to him?

I dynoed 520HP/1015TQ on Dave Dunbars dyno a few weeks back spinnin my big 265 19.5" Alcoas with adapters. Dave said those eat up a bit of power for sure.

I'll bring the Root Beer and see whatcha got. Yeah, when HMP first opened it was REAL layed back. People all up on the starting line, tech was non exisistent, etc...Didn't HMP change ownershp not too long ago????? I see you are in Huntsville? I went to Sam Houston WAY back in the day ('90-'91). Shoot me a PM next time you are going out

You might be able to put down close to 500hp for $600, but you won't be daily driving it for long if you actually use the power. You need supporting mods to daily drive with 500 useable HP.
