Default Want to make more hp

I want to make 500hp-600hp. I'm about to buy a goerend triple disk for the 47re. What more do I have to do to reach this hp. I'm Also adding a draw straw and .093 feed tubes. I would also like to know what precautions I need to take from blowing up my motor and transmission

Are you still running stock turbo? That would be a easy way to get there with you current mod setup.

Yes I'm still running the stock turbo. I was thinking about doing a twin setup but using my stock turbo.

That should help you out a good bit. More air more fuel more power.

Okay so what turbo would be best and do I need to worry about the transmission after I get the triple disk on there? And do I need to get head studs or anything else for the motor? Also I forgot to mention I don't really tow anything besides my quad and a couple loads of wood each year.

You will need a billet input shaft with the triple disk. head studs shouldn't be an issue till you are around 50 lbs of boost.

Okay. With just the mods I have now with the triple disk should the original input shaft hold up until I get a new one

I hear a lot of good things about the super b. But you can bank on atleast 1200 for any new turbo. Maybe you will find one on sale.
