how to get 350-400 HP?
my truck is a 2000 5 spd the only engine mods i have is a BHAF 4" exhuast and a VA 60HP box. I have no i dea how much power this is producing but im gettin ready to put 35's on it and id like to have some extra power like maybe the 350-400 HP range without getting a COMP or any other larger fueling box. I was wondering if this was possible just through addition of injectors and a turbo. Ive been reading about edm injectors they sound like the way to go but are they worth the extra money? I was planning on getting the F1 diesel mach 3's and a hx35/40 hybrid turbo. With my VA box about how much HP would i have? If there is anyone running this set up how do u like it or is there any other setups that would be better for me?

Yes you could go with BIG injectors and a bigger turbo but unless your va box advances the timing youll need a different box like at least an edge ez and you will also need a new clutch.

He's putting 35" tires,, so his HP goal is going to be harder to meet.
Put some Mach 2's, and a COMP (No need to do a drag Comp.)
The 2's are $700+$100 core, and teh COMP is about $600.
over 300HP you need gauges,, no doubt.
A complete gauge setup will run about $300
A clutch will be in order at that HP with those tires.

I don't see a profile as what you have on the truck. but I'll tell you one ting, if you don't have gauges , you will hate yourself one day. Your talking about runnin hot now. With 400HP you can peg a 1600 gauge anytime you want. I like a gauge for any thing that gets hot. Front to back.
