Default Turbo and Injector time!!

Im interested in injectors and a turbo. I know for sure i want to go with a 38r for a turbo but im not sure what i want for injectors. I like the price of jims stage 2's for 800 but im not sure if my pmr's could handle them. I was also looking at Casserly stage 1. Could someone shine some light on this possible setup and what kind of hp will i have?

Yes its a 99 but last year i had to drop an new motor in and the guy put 99 valve cover stickers over 2003 stickers, so its a 99 with a 03 7.3.

Did you check to see if you have PMR's?

Whats your HP goal?

Your budget?

The use of your truck? Daily driver, Work horse, Play toy?

yeah i confirmed that it has pmr's. My hp goal is 400-420 maxxxx! My budget is (throw this on this month and next month throw that on). Its a daily driver/ play toy and hunting/trapping rig half the year. I already have guages and a stage 2 clutch so im fine in that aspect.

160/100 or 180/100 injectors and a 38R will put you right there...

I was looking at Swamps today and noticed no reburn charge and a really good warranty for 175/146 injectors. How are swamps injectors compared to cass's?

Swamps built some of if not the first set of performance psd injectors. They are one of the top two or three in the bus.

I ran there 175/173 injectors years ago. No issues what so ever. In fact there still in a guys truck in cali!

175/146 have stock nozzles on them. I would go for at least a 80% nozzle. Prefered a 100%.
