Default 12 sec Quarter mile & Daily driver

How many people out there have reached this goal and what did it take? Also what kind of EGT's and MPG are u seeing? I have a 06 4x4 qcsb with 13,000 mile on it and you can see my mods in my sig. My next mod will be a full billet tranny so I've already been doing research on that. After that I'm planning on a pump upgrade and injectors, any recommendations would be appreciated. Next would be studs and springs before I do a turbo upgrade which will probably be BD twins, but might have to start with there single then upgrade it to duals because of cash flow. I was also interested in the MP-8 smarty stack, will it help my mpg?

100hp injectors don't go over 150 for injectors size a lot of tuning and the 100 will make dang good power and not smoke that much at all

thanks 4 the replys guy! i think the 100 hp injectors would be perfect just have to chose a brand.

What kind of pump grade would help maintain power but also still give me good MPG's and retain my DD status?

DD status is as easy as fipping a switch, literally.

Theres a few simple pump upgrades, or a complete modded pump upgrade. they both work well.
