To save money in the long run, a good lift pump. I don't see one in your signature if you do have one. A set of injectors would be good after the LP. 100-125HP with a stock turbo is about max.

You will have to think about your trans with the extra HP. You may wanna look into a new TC and upgraded valve body as well

put money into the things are going to break first. liftpump is a big big yes to do to any truck. I honestly would save money for the t/c and valve body.

Definitely an after market lift pump with Air Separation capability. Your injectors will thank you.

the only way your injection pump will have a problem is if you slap big injectors in there and install a chip or programmer on as well without a solid lift pump..check out the airdog 150 or fass 95 or fass 150. those are all good pumps with fuel water separators and fuel filters!
