Default 400rwhp `02 Powerstroke.

Hi. I got a `02 7,3 Powerstroke with upgraded tranny and a chip on(unknown brand). About 250rwhp i think. But i want more! I use it every day so i want it to be useable on the street. Is 350-400rwhp a realistic target? What modifications do you recomend? And what will this cost?

best regards

you can throw the total cost out the window because its never enough, its a constant quest for more power. once you start, its so addicting you just cant stop. so my recommendation is to do a little as you go and for what you can afford and get recommendations of the guys here that know your truck and let them help you come up with an order of operations so that you dont get the cart before the horse and end up having to save up a lot at once to help go along with the mods you've already done. (i.e. too much fuel not enough air, or too much power for trans) its not as simple as a lot of people make it out to be. learn from others mistakes. take your time, and do it right the first time, its a lot cheaper! good luck with your quest!

YES! you can contact him direct and hell do what ever you want! custom tune is way better than off the shelf. I had my evo give to me so...but i plan to get a wildman once i do a stealth pump!!
