Default Hybrid Injector and Turbo - Who to buy from

Hello...I have a F450, 65,000 miles - powerstroke, AFE stage 2, Banks power elbow with 4" down pipe and 5" exhaust with Areo Turbine mufler, 6 speed standard with US gear overdrive. I have a South Bend twin disk clutch rated for 550 to 650 hp. The truck weighs 13,000 lbs and I sometime pull a 13,000 lb trailer - all of this Rocky Mountain driving.

I don't want to go into the motor for studs on a HP oil pump.

Two of my injectors are faulty and I want to upgrade. I am thinking about hybrids, but don't know a lot about the subject. Of all the ones I have looked at I like the BDP stage 2 with the six setting chip. However, I am not sure what brands to consider and if BDP is one of them.

As well, I would like to do something about the turbo. I would consider a complete turbo upgrade...if so what make and model. If I upgrade the housing and wheel.....what make and model.

This is my first posting here....thanks for any help with my need to get more out of my engine for mountain driving.

Personally I would go with Casserly Hybrids and a Garrett 38R. Contact Clay at Riffraff Diesel, he can steer you in the right direction.

Thanks hillbilliestroker....have you or anyone else have anything to say regarding BDP (Beans). I like that they have rebuilt injectors as well as custom tuned chips.

Thanks

They use Casserly's injectors I'm pretty sure.

Never heard anything bad about Beans or Swamps. They're both good.

Give Swamps a call, for your truck I would go with a set of standard hybrids with 80% nozzles and a 38R...

I bought the swamps injectors today. I am now looking for a good price on a Garrett 38R. Should I buy the stock housing or the larger one?

Thanks for all the help so far!!
