Default lookin to mod my 92 HELP!

I have a 92 12 valve 5 speed. it is completely stock.My first question is does anyone know a good website with details for adjusting the fuel pump? Also i plan on 4" straight pipe, what is the best brand to go with? I want it to be deep and loud sound. Ill also be gettin a denny t fuel pin. Injectors and turbo upgrades in the future when i have the extra $. Thanks

Don't bother replacing it all to 4". Just pull the muffler and put a straight pipe in. Power difference for what you're doing will be no different. The 3" will also sound more tractor like and nicer than the 4".

I call BS. I preffer 4" on a 1st gen over 3" muffler or no muffler. also the 4" lowers egt's. Go to TV diesel n look up the diamond eye kit people love it and it costs 269 I think with free shipping in the lower 48.

thanks man. the guy i bought it from had already cut muffler out and replaced with pipe. so it was 3 inch straight pipe. it wasnt loud at all. i had to cut the exhaust off to give me access to my frame rail so i could paint it.so i am replacing the whole system downpipe and all. i have heard 4 inch straight piped 12 valves and they sound alot louder than my truck. once again thanks.
