need more hp

I am not sure what to do for my next mod for HP. I just did some mods I went with the industrial 90hp injectors I was disapointed on the dyno numbers (in my sig). Should I get larger ones? If so how big? I still drive it every day if that means anything. OR is there another mod I am missing that I can do??

Yes It is that pump. It works well I think. When I had my quad rail gauge hooked up it held 26,500psi in all gears.

It was a dynojet, and it said smoothing 5 at the top. I went with some buddys and they thought I would have some more than that also. My bro inlaw with a D-max with EFI live and a 5000 turbo put down 606 hp.

Some dynos are unforgiving. I would try again on a different dyno, you have got to be 550+, but if your having some rail issues (the popping you have been explaining) that may be holding you back. Is your truck running god sotp wise, or does it feel like its lacking?
