EXHAUST!!! than and intake, big nasty custom chip, injectors, then a better turbo. not much free HP on that era ford. if you dont want to make huge power, just move the trailer a bit better look into a 1.00 AR turbine housing.

Moved to the correct section...

How much HP you want? And more importantly how much HP can you afford?

Well Mr. Fummins, Auto or manual transmission?

You probably won't get that much hp with that kind of budget..

youll drop that much on an auto transmission alone. exhaust, intake, custom tunes, gauges, injectors, intercooler, turbo, HPOP, electric fuel system (Beans, Swamps, Airdog), bottom end, studs, and if its an auto then a transmission. Deisel Power Magazine has an article in
November 2011 that is about power combos for 7.3s
