Looking for a little advice on the order of bombing my 12.
So far the mods to date starting with high priority.
1. New Goerend Billet auto (done)
2. Gauges. (done)
3. 4" Exhaust. (done)
4. Amsoil 4510 version of the BHAF. (done)
5. Grind my fuel plate to a "0".
6. 3K GSK or go with the 4K?
7. Advance my timing.
8. 60lb valve springs
9. Injectors DDP Stage3 or F1's
10. HTT 64/71/14 or 62/71/13ss Turbo

Am I missing anything? The order is also based on money. The trans I didn't have a choice. Stock tranny I knew I would have to deal with. It also roasted on me shortly after buying the truck like within 500 miles.. I wanted something that would last.

Figured the turbo would be the last on order due to the cost. Most likely be spending a couple grand on it. Looking to be in the 400-500hp range and tow roughly 10k.
Thanks for the input.

 

more than a coupple grand

 

Sorry I meant 2 grand on the turbo only. I'm figuring close to 4grand total with the remaining items.

 

something like that tranny will be close to $1500, turbo close to $2000, injectors almost a $1000, rest of it looking at near another $1000

 

Yeah the tranny is done and I've got over 5grand in it. Billet everything, triple disc, goerend custom valve body, etc... rated to handle up to 800hp.

 

I would go with 4ks. And the trubos you have and injectors are enough to push you into into and past the 500s with the right tuning.

Your on the right track only thing i can see would be maybe some DVs if your 181s cant support it and maybe some engine work (studs, fire rings). The nearer you get to sticks and turbo the more you should look at every option and what your end goal is gonna be. If your looking at more the 400 hp range 215 injectors and the right turbo and tuning will get you there. If your looking for 500hp a 90hp injector will get you there pretty easy.

 

yep definatly rings and studs worst mistake i made was running this much boost an a stock headgasket and stock head bolts

 

I figure I might hear the 4K be the ticket. At what HP range do I need to look at doing studs and rings? I wasn't planning on pushing past 500hp. Any insight on which HTT turbo? Looking for something that still spools quickly as I don't want to lose my low end. Also what size delivery valves?

 

thats going to be a good build, the gsk will really wake the truck up. im doing the same build but im going with the towing twins set up.

 

Im sure some turbo guys will chime in but I would say a 62 of some kind. As for studs its more of a preventative thing. I would only get them if you plan on boosting past 50 or running past 17* of timing.
