Checkout 5.9L 24V Bombs (Aftermarket) - Diesel Bombers or 24 Valve 2nd Gen Dodge Cummins 98.5-02 - Diesel Bombers Before you do anything major. Build up that 47re. Most of us that have it have messed it up in one way or another through our mods. It is your most expensive build up but suggest you do it first before you get stranded or have to limp it to a repair shop.

Very true. Once you get a built tranny, the power option are pretty much endless...

I agree, tranny first to avoid damaging something. If you can p-pump it you will be much better off in the long run and at higher HP levels. Then Airdog or FASS to make sure you don't starve the system of fuel. Gauges to know whats going on, exhaust and cold air intake to allow your truck to breathe. I agree on either a quadzilla adrenaline or a Edge chip. Then a turbo but it depends on what you are going to use it for either towing or racing can affect that choice. Injectors also play a role in HP. If you only want 450hp I would suggest 150hp injectors. You should hit 450hp+ in no time with all the mods mentioned in the thread by everyone. Ask specific questions about each product (injectors, turbo, etc.) to get a better idea of what to look for, everyone will be more than happy to help you! Good luck!
