07 5.9 Upgrades for a newbie
Hey guys, new to the forum and new to my truck.
Im coming from a power stroke, I just got out of my 01 F350 7.3. I recently just picked up a fairly built 07 5.9 CR. As you can tell from my sig its got a good amount of engine work done. My buddy I bought it from was gonna throw an upgraded cp3, twins, and a few other things on it but I don't have that kind of money haha. Im shooting for something more reasonable hp/tq wise.
Im aiming for about 600-650hp. I feel like that would be very DD friendly truck but can still get up and go for fun little races. I am completely new to the cummins world so Im gonna need your help on this one. I know Im gonna need to upgrade the turbo and injectors (nozzles will be fine?). I have a fully built allison behind it that can handle the twins if I ever feel like going that big. Do I need to upgrade the cp3 or any other fuel aspects (besides the injectors). Truck is currently EFI live (it needs to be) so Ill go get it redone once I add all of the new stuff. Please help me find my way to the 600-650hp range please. I appreciate the help in advance guys!!
