Default wherw to go?

What direction should I take. I'm lookin for power. Nothin all at once. But its a slow build. I'm sitting on an all stock other than chip quad adr, air dog 150, and 5"exh. Idk if I should go with tips or whole injectors. Idk what's better or worth it. I want to put compounds but don't know a decent setup for street and daily driving. I need an aftermarket intake horn...can I put a smartys with my adr? I just need a direction to go. And im looking at bigger injector lines...like i said one step at a time and just need a general direction. Thanks

You could do compunds with your stock turbo if you wanted. The problem with fueling and compounds is that the max fueling that your stock turbo can handle wont be enough to spool the compunds properly. You would need atleast 150hp injectors and your stock turbo wont like that much fuel over a longer period of time. An intake horn isnt super important to start. I would put that money towards headstuds. If you just want to start with some 75hp tips on your stock turbo that would be good.

I'm a fan of complete injectors. they are set to the right pop pressures.

Alright, I wasn't sure bout stacking with my adr...I've got it on torque monster..I'm thinking I need a rad box aswell. But I don't know for sure. I'll do a boost launch and when i take off it cuts out like its hitting the rev limiter but its not. I'm wanting to put an hx40 on instead of my hy. Are silver bullets worth the money? What does everyone think? Just lookin For ideas.

Thing is I have another box with the factory tune. Does the same thing. Put them both on stock and then it goes away. I plan on posting a vid of it sometime soon if i can figure it out

do whole injectors then find a good turbo to run as a single like a 62 then later when you can add a bottom s475 then you will have a nice set of compounds. you could even get a 58 or 60 mm single for now then get a s475 sbottom it will cruise nice
