Streetable 500+HP/1000ftlb+TQ
I figured I can't do this with the TST alone so what else would complement it. I figured I need an upgraded injector pump, who make a good one and stands behind it near Missouri. I see people achiving this with a single turbo and thinking eithering some for High Tech Turbo or Industrial Injection unless there is a good place in Missouri. Is streetable with a single turbo and that power range possible or will it be surgy. Can 500 be done with the stock sticks or do i need to upgrade them as well.
Truck is no longer a daily driver due to fuel prices. Since i am saveing so much with my commuter car, I figured time to throw some $$$ at the toy. Probably will end up hooked to a sled at some point but still need to be able to pull my bass boat with out much trouble. A little lag is ok. Smoke don't bother me.
So from the folks that are in the know is it possible and what recommendations. I don't just want to be able to make that on the dyno want to be able to drive it like that.
Thanks. Hope I made sense.

My truck is a daily drive and geats good mpg towing and non towing. I drive it around programmed to 500hp and it works great. I turn it up to 560+ when I want to play. I think you will find out that its very easy to do and it works for alot of people. Upgrade the cp3, lift pump and a good all around turbo if you don't do twins and stack with the Smarty and you are at 500+. Good luck

I ran with the Predator "tow tune" 456hp @ 900trq, before I installed the FASS 150, I now have the Smarty and I'm sure I'm closer to 500hp now, I just haven't had time to get to the dyno to verify.

You should be able to get to 500hp with a turbo added to your mix. The latest TST with all options should get you right about there. A II Silver 62 type turbo will not be too laggy on the street and provide all you need for 500hp.
I was just over 500hp with AFE Air Intake, high flow muffler, SPS66 turbo, FASS and TST/EZ stack. That was with a fully built 48RE that helped put most of the power to the ground. I am close to 600hp with stock cp3 and injectors with my current mods.

Intake, exhaust, Lift pump, Smarty, studs, and a small turbo would get you there. You may benefit from a modded CP3 at that level, but I know of a couple stock cp3's in the 560/1100 range.
I did 523/1001 with TST with no pressure, lift pump, turbo, and DDP 90's.

You won't need injectors immediately, the TST stacked with a Smarty with a turbo will get you there. Then you can save money for stix, studs, and eventually a cp3 upgrade. This IMO, but this is the route I'm going. Stick around 500 for awhile, then when I get more dinero I can bump on up to the 600 club!
