Default 400 HP?

What all would i have to do to get my 98' dodge 12v to about 400hp or more. I wana get all quality products for it. Right now its pretty much bone-dry stock. Also i want products that won't ruin another part of the pick-up, like for instance the automatic transmission. I'm thinking about getting a better transmission anyways though, like a Goerend or a suncoast. So what do you guys suggest to get to 400 Horsepower?

to get to 400 with out tearing out the tranny is impossible. a TC and a VB will keep it safe for around 400.

now for 400, a 0 plate and a set of 5x.014 injectors should put ya right around there with a stock truck, but will be very hot for dd. theres different things need to do to have a 400hp truck with out high egts like a bigger turbo. good luck to ya

400 horse is easy to get to some people might say that you dont need all these parts but itll make a reliable ride make sure you have a tranny thatll hold it billet parts and a triple disk im a straight stick guy so ill let the other boys with autos fill the rest in
