What's next? I've gotten head studs, egr delete, a new oil cooler, sct programer with custom tunes, a full set of gauges, and a 5" turbo back exhaust. What's the next step?

Really depends what your plans/goals are for the truck. I would do an airdog 2 though next, always a good mod. Might look into a coolant filter too.

What gauges do you have now?

I have egt, temp ( eot, ect, trans) &, fuel pressure. I ran a toggle switch between my temps so I only have one Gauge but it reads 3 different sending units.

Ok so what are your goals for the truck?? What power do you want and what will you be doing with it? Towing at all, or just a street/strip truck?

Since you have a fuel pressure gauge, what does FP drop to on a wide open run?

Make a wide open throttle run and watch your fuel pressure. What psi does it drop to.

Yes. If it drops at all, you need a fuel pump. My guess is you do.

Which airdog should I get the 100 or the 150 they are the same price. Would the 150 be too much.
