Default DFI SAC Injectors Installed

Still slowly building up my truck...injectors and headstuds in last weekend.
440km on engine

I chose 7x.010 SAC From Ducky Fuel Injection, hoping to maintain mileage, and still have enough fuel for Compounds.
Only been a week, i have not lost mileage, possible slight increase, to soon to give accurate info on this.I get 18mpg in town, 24mpg highway(canadian gallon) Hand math not lie-o-meter
Truck sounds is way different...sounds more like a 12 valve to me, and does pull harder for sure
I find the smoke very controllable(pump wire off) On 6x1 EJWA

Next is new turbo & 4 inch exhaust, thinking Garret BB and external gate(low stall torque is killing me for a good launch) and adding S472 later.
I was looking at S300 57 65 or a K27...anyone use one of these??anyway, a couple hundred RPM on the bottom is and will be a big deal to me and worth some cash i believe.
Can anyone tell me, If i go new secondary and exhaust, will me exhaust still work for compounds down the road?? Building as funds allow, trying not to shoot myself in the foot.
According to Edge, boost is 35lbs(i know,get a real gauge) anyone know what the Max reading of factory MAP is?
Gauge Im looking at:https://www.kennedydiesel.com/detail.cfm?ID=636
Can easily watch my DP at same time im thinking.
Something interesting maybe:https://mopar1973man.com/topic/11312...for-vp-trucks/
Maybe time to switch to smarty? Torque Managment really buggin,and losing gauges with swtich getting to me...how hard to switch to 99' ecm/pcm?? buggin me enough to consider full manual valve body and ratchet shifter...

thanks,
Judas
