Default Advice Needed

Ok guys I'm new on here and would like some advice I have had my 94 dodge for a few months and have been reading forums and adding mods ever since. My plan is to turn it into a pulling/driveable street truck this summer and later on a full time puller. Want to stay in the stock class this summer. The mods I have are in my sig also have a 4k gsk 60lb springs coming this week and thinking of bumpng the timing to 17*. I guess my question is, what else do I need to do to be halfway competative in the stock class?

Well I'm not sure exactly on all the rules yet but I think most everything has to be stock "appearing". I'm just looking for a little advice on any more mods I can do to get a little extra hp out of it. Not sure how much I can throw at the stock turbo though.

If just stock appearing, you might be able to go with a larger turbo. You could always call the organization and find out exactly.

Well it sounds like they only have a few pulls with the work stock class so I'm thinking of just building the truck for the 2.6 class. What would be a good setup? I'm thinking about pulling the plate adding some comp DVs and maybe 5x16 or 18 injectors. What would be a good turbo to run?

Any suggestions would be helpful

5x.016's, 5 k springs, 30* timing, and other mods to support it

the turbo is an ED charger s400 frame 2.630" inducer bore 74/83 turbine 1.25 T4 housing. I'm sending it to ED to be fully rebuilt before I sell it, I'm asking $1100+ shipping

dont take out your plate i have one ill cut for u and send to u for 50 bucks and i also have a set of 90 hp ddp injectors forsale 300 bucks but the reason im saying dont pull your fuel plate is because u will have a chance on the engine running away on u and blowing up just run a good performance fuel plate and take out your afc foot i have alot of other parts also if u would be interested also i can cut your delivery valves for another 50 but u have to send me yours i dont have a stock set lmk if your interested in anything

yea dont pull the plate. its not the best set up. if its an auto a #4 would be great or a number 5plate. and you can slide the afc and turn the star wheel. and make sure you kill the kdp if you havent yet!!!!! and a lift pump might be needed and a turbo is youre next bet. and if its manual a clutch obviously is needed.
