turning up the fuel pressure or adding a bigger pump will do 0 for more power

Nozzles will also do nothing for power. They will just make it smokey and run hot. These have an injector and not nozzles like a cummins does. You will need a chip and injectors of you want me power.

That would not be an upgrade. If you want an upgrade you need to get a hydra. Get the exhaust and of your choice and make sure you have gauges.

The are no better then what you have now. The hydra is a chip built by power hungry performance. It allows you to add and remove custom tunes and shift on the fly. It is the best on the market for the 7.3.
