and after that were stackin some sheeeeeetttt. I want to see your truck chunk some smoke,
Sure, you can get a set of factory Forged for about $600, then install them for another $400-$600...

What is it with the "stacking"? Stacking does NOTHING on a 7.3, we are not a 24v dodge, or a CR. You dont gain a fricking thing by stacking. Chip, injectors, turbos... Not chip, programer, 10k, Nitrous...

I dont get it... I mod for the power, not the smoke. Sure I love to smoke them every now and then, but its not the point of modding the truck.

I've gone thru 6 trannys, 3 motors (on this truck) one rear end, 2 drive shafts, broke all 8 lug studs off the drivers rear, water pumps, oil pumps, turbos...

What I am saying is it takes money to make power, do it right the first time and you can save alot. Listen and learn from the people on here that have been there done that.

Its your money, if you want to stack 6 programers and 3 chips, go for it, but I could take the same money and make 100-150 more HP...

If you want to be in the 400+ range, hybrid injectors and a good turbo will put you there.

Who you got building and setting up your ****?

Stevie Wonder on assembly, with Ray Charles as the supervisor, and Helen Keller writing the software and doing the tuning?

If I broke that much **** in that small amount of time - I definitely wouldn't be advertising it.

18 jugs of spray in one summer isn't breaking ****, either, but it probably was a pretty large contributor to you breaking ****...or it may explain why your posts seem to stem from some sort of drug induced haze...
