So, if set my pump to the pyro and add a intercooler with stock turbo your bets guess how much hp will I gain. If I then add the hx40 what will be the end result?

Being 210 now, I would sayyyy.....240hp, depending on how far out the fuel screw comes. Just adding the HX40 to that combo may add another 10hp. Remember, it takes fuel to make power. Your little 10mm pump can only do so much. As another freebie mod, drilling out the delivery valve holders a little(like 1/64" bigger) will get it a pretty good increase, if you get the '40. I'm waiting on a guy to send me a set so I can get pix of what to do there. He's giving me a set of 12mm plunger& barrell assemblies. May even find their way into a work truck's 466....the one in my videos with straight pipe.

what will it take to get to the 275hp+ range , or is it possible without sacrificing reliability?

Either drill out the delivery valve holders, or get 12mm plunger & barrells. A decent fuel injection shop can do either. You could go to 450hp and still be plenty reliable. The rest of the drive train wont be too keen on that idea though.

I guess my 40,000 rear ends won't take 450hp but they should take 300hp.
thanks for the info, I am going to see if I can find a hx40 some where.

What about a DT466e? I have a 98 DT466e I was kicking around putting dt530e injectors in because they flow 15cc's more than 466's and also upgrating the turbo. Would an HX40 be an option for the E motors also?

Double check the injectors you have, that they are a split shot. Im pretty sure they all were after sometime in 97. If they are the low power, you'll need a HPOP for a dt530, which will be the higher volume for the injectors you need. Those are classified as a BP injector, and is rated for 330hp in a 466e. Yes, an HX 40 is a great one to use, unless you can score a Garrett off a 530. Alternative to getting all new injectors and oil pump is getting your existing nozzles extrude honed. No compatibility issues. Soon, there will be kustom ECM burning to turn these weak mice into the monsters they can be.

Here is a pic of the HX40 install. Thanks for your help Nevrenufhp.
Your bottle is coming...everytime I get it home it goes empty.

Then, go bigger injectors.
Then, a bigger pump.
Then a bigger turbo and even bigger injectors.
