Since you're 16 and didn't make any statements on what you're truck is going to be used for, I will assume it's just for play and not for any serious work or hauling. You will like POD's then (Lucas Prince of darkness Injectors).

Get some gauges though, at least an EGT gauge, so you don't melt any pistons fooling around.

What? POD's are a cheap injector for 1st gens. Look around for some used ones.

Wanna buy my DDP4's?

I might want to upgrade to 6 x 16's

DDP4's are 80 horse injectors. I thought POD's were in the $400 range. Maybe they went up. I don't know. I heard they smoked a lot so I never considered them. I'm not into the smoke thing.

So you want power on the cheap then. The 3200 spring is the best 20 bucks you will spend. Do an EGT gauge, then start turning it up. That will give you some satisfaction.

Your stock injectors will be plenty for what you (and your dad) said you are trying to do. I would mod in this order....

-3200 Spring
-BFAH (Big Honkin Air Filter)
-EGT and boost Gauge
-Timing Bump
-Mild Pump Tuning
-4" Exhaust
-Some More Pump Tuning
