before u do injectors, u need gauges. a set of 5x.014 would be the biggest id go.

going off your sig, it looks like u need a set of 60#valve spring also.



what r u wanting to know about the nv5600 swap?

sdx injectors no doubt. best bet would get a donor truck for the swap or it can turn into a quick headache. u can get 5x14's or 5x12's with different dv's.

there is all sorts of injectors 5 holes 6 holes 7 holes 8 holes etc.
5x10 which comes stock in a 98 manual
5x12 90hp
5x13 not sure but thats a 370 injector
5x14 140 hp
5x16 not rated but i think its a 200 hp
5x18 240 hp
5x20 dont do it

6 holes are 24 valve and none for 12 valve if im thinkin rite and 7 holes are for 12 valve


secondly on the nv4500 goin fast its all about the gear ratio of your truck is the big thing. motor work will just get u there faster

on the boost elbow im no pro on it but it has a screw that u adjust which restricts airflow
