Air vs Fuel

Air vs Fuel
Hey guys I found this website yesterday and ended up reading things on it for quite a few hours. I have a 97 12v with 215 injectors, 0 fuel plate, star wheel cranked up, a stage 3 AFE brute force air intake, and a 4' exaust on it right now, but i have a 5' laying around for once i get a bit higher hp and a built up tranny. My buddy and i were debating on air vs fuel. I wanted to get some more fuel to the engine by getting mabey 425 injectors and some 191 delivery valves to get my truck goin a bit faster. My buddy recommeneded that i should get a new turbo instead, to get the most out of what i have in it right now. Any input would be aprieciated.
Also anyone happen to know someone that does Diesel Dynos in Alaska ive been lookin and found 1 but they only do gas engines.

This list is assuming you already have gauges. They are first in my book and in almost anyone else’s.
For all out power
1 Fuel Plate #10, 100, 0 AFC tweaking
2 4K GSK
3 clutch upgrade or new TC and VB
4 Exhaust and intake
5 New Turbo or mild injectors
6 Big injectors (435s ddp4s) or new turbo
7 DVs
8 Trans upgrades (shafts)
9 Head work (studs, Fire rings)
10 Pump work
11 Something injectable
Im sure there is stuff im forgetting but that’s a basic list.
Oh and don’t forget tires

Wow there are two words that do not belong in the same sentence! Banks and Super B!
The Super B is a BD Diesel Turbo not a Banks and a good choice for you, it has a very large efficiency range that will work hard, spool up great and run very efficiently right up 450RWHP, If 450HP is exceeded, the Super B can be upgraded to twins.
The Super B includes a 4" downpipe with clamp and an adjustable wastegate.
