Hey guys I have a 2001 7.3L powerstroke and want a little more out of it. I know I have PMR so 450HP is my limit. But I currently have AEM brute force intake, CFM manifold, 4in Turbo back exhaust with 7pm stack kit from FTE diesel, and custom tunes from BTS. What do some of you recommend next? I'm looking at full force diesel HPOP and there stage1 160cc injectors or stage2 160cc injectors. Along with ATS compressor housing with wicked wheel and banks turbine housing with big head wastegate or wait and go with a modded H2E. Any tips will be great guys.

Defintely wanna look into some injectors, your choice on those. You will need a trans to support it and gauges to keep an eye on temps. Turbo will depend on injectors but a good upgrade would be a 38r.

I already have gauges and Im supposed to have a built tranny from jasper, but it sucks my stock was way better. I really want BTS trans. What size injector would be best?

What are your hp goals? Budget? Like I said, its your call, if it were me, i'd get some stage two single shots...

A good Torque Converter will help your transmission.

My budget can be whatever I need it to be. not worried about money. But with PMR i would say 400hp.

I have plans on build a daily driver/sled puller so building a motor is in the future. So I am back to do I want to go all out on injectors and dual hpop from BTS and big turbo? Or stop at just a HPOP and stage 2 injectors and mild turbo?

I would change torque converter but its under warranty so waiting on my next step. Planning on going to a BTS tranny.

Why don't you just leave this one stock then and build a motor with forged rods, then drop it in later?

Otherwise, Stage 2's and a 38r will get you around the 400hp range...

Yea I been trying to make up my mind and I think I am going to stage 1 my big truck. And convert one of our work trucks into a race truck. When I'm done building the motor and everything I should see it pushing 650-700 hp.

Who builds a good set of ladder bars for a lifted 01 F-250?? And how much does the sled weigh in sled pulling? Wanting to give it a try. I'm good friends with Tim Engler as he sponsored me in racing. And now thinking about moving up into sled pulling after seeing all he has done in tractor pulls. Kinda got me interested in the sport.
