Don't feel bad Don seems to have plenty of time to respond to posts on every single website in the world but no time at all to respond to customers via P.M. or phone..F-1 reccomends you contact dealers for tech, if you don't have the time to respond to all the calls and messages you get why don't you let your dealers speak for you online as well??

They're about the same price. I got my tranny in yesterday, and I saw a little jump in power, but I think I just need some stinkin' fuel. That's all I can figure. Tired of being slow and I think it's finally time to get some injectors. Seriously, I've got a crapload of money in this truck, and I can't outrun my brothers 04 Hemi. Not even close. And I can't even start to chirp the tires off the line. Thanks. -Josh
My vote is neither at this point. You won't be able to use the fuel of either injector without a charger. Save your penny's for a charger and then cut the #8 to a #100. After that, see how close you are to your HP goal and then think about injectors. JMO, IMHO, FWIW, etc...

Update

Well, got around to cutting my old stock plate to #100 plate this weekend. Installed it last night, and I stepped into her and knew right away I had WAY more power. From a stop, no boost, I'll spin just a little as i get moving if I floor it. From a 10lb boosted launch, she'll break loose sideways in the rear!

Previously, never got more than 32 lbs boost, and now I'm seeing 42 lbs!
EGTs climbed up to 1200 pretty quick, slowly crept to 1300*, then I shifted into overdrive and they started falling right back down.

This is WAY more fun. Now I REALLY want the injectors and turbo, but they may have to wait until I put some money into the steering, front end, and brakes so this beast is a little more drivable. Thanks! -Josh

Tune that stock turbo down bubba... 42 psi and HX's don't mix very well for long. My wastegate is supposed to open at 36, but I see 40 quite often.. Too much fuel and not enough wastegate..

I am also in the turbo market, the stock fueling already has me peggin the pyro, however much further up the RPM range than Chris..LOL

How do you tune down the turbo? Never messed w/ the wastegate before.

I don't peg it anymore...GT4088R keeps temps below 1400 For now We'll see what happens with some more fuel, and some more tuning!

I've got a couple chargers laying around if your interested...PM me

I don't know how you guys do it, with what I have I can "blow" by 1600* just doing a burnout. If I floor it from a dead stop by the time 60MPH comes up I'm at 1500* and the pyro looks like a rocket!!

4" HX 40 turbo back straight piped, AFE intake, 370 injectors, laser cut DV's, timing bumped, Number 6 plate in the stock position and the arm adjusted. Oh, and a tranny with upgraded clutches. 6 in the direct drum, 5 in the low drum, and 6 overdrive. And a little billet here and there Thanks to my Buddy Dave G !!

The laser cuts are making the EGTs go high. Too much fuel for your little turbo.

I figured the HX 40 would work well, big step up from the 35 . I really want to keep them, I had the 370 stumble until I put those in there!!!
