No such thing as cheap horsepower. You have to have more fuel and more air. That is the recipe... Neither of which are cheap...

stacks suck! Get a 5" exhaust or at the very least do a muffler delete.There is nothing like scrubbing soot off a white travel trailer or race car.The best chip is a php custom tuned one,$300 some guys like tony wildman,he uses the same hardware but is $100 more.I have a php and it corrected a weird shifting issue and speedometer.

With the chip,my flo-pro 5" exhaust and a open air filter this truck with a 8" lift and 37s will get sideways like a mustang. GET GAUGES FIRST-not gayshifts either

Injectors would be the next step then... Do some research. Plenty of information on here about them...

I run Full Force diesel injectors... Rosewood or Swamps are other good choices...

Depending on what injector you want to go with will dictate what other mods are needed... a good daily driver injector is a 160cc... That's what I run and have run for a couple years now.

For gauges, At the very least you need an EGT gauge to keep an eye on engine temps... I would recommend Autometer or isspro gauges...
