Default IDEAS NEEDED!!!!!!

Ok guys... I am starting down that restore and improve road. What I need from all of you is some advice. I have a stock 2000 dodge 3500 single cab with the 24v cummins. I need some help deciding on what type of injector pump, lift pump, intake manifold, and airbox to buy. I was pulling trailers with this truck all the time, now not so much. I want it dependable but would like to have it boosted in the power scale a bunch and rollin a little coal. Any help here would greatly be appreciated.


Thanks in advance

Well you don't really need a injector pump yet your vp44 can handle up to 500hp. You will for sure need a lift pump, go with a AirDog or a Fass both a very good lift pumps. Next go with a programmer a smarty, edge will do the job and let you smoke a little if you want. You will need guages so you can watch you egts and boost. Or you could by a edge Cts that has the gauges in the monitor. You won't really need a intake horn yet a stock one will do you fine for now. For your airbox go with a AFE thats what I run and I like it alot. You will also need a straight pipe 4 inch should be fine.
