kinda curious on this subject as well... i know john has some goodies done to his and works out of it, i really dont wanna take the driveability out of the truck either. maybe a HP recipe list?
 
the bhaf in the pic, is it a fleetrite filter? part #?does it get wet?
john ant preference on alum or stainless on the exhaust. im not wanting to spend a ton of $$ on a exhaust and figure 4" will be ok but may just do 5" and go for the 400-450hp mark.
 
just remove the factory air box and install the filter? do i need a 4" piece of pipe? does it stay dry up there? maybe order a outerware?
 
no, that is the conviction im looking for, and brand better than others? looking at bully dog 4" or the one that jegs sells, but i dont know who makes it. and at 299 for alum and 499 for stainless, and dont have to pay shipping..oh, looking at guages as well, and recommendations on brand, i know i have to run egt, boost, trans temp and fuel pressure.
 
thanks chris, all be getting the filter friday. hey one more question, does the silencer removed on the turbo hurt anything, i read a few things on that but all the say is a increase in turbo noise.i figured with the silencer removed it would create more of a turbulance before it enters the turbo, what do u think?
 
john, u recommended diesel dynamics for injectors but what about that fueling box? which one works the best? and at what point am i going to have to upgrade the pusher pump?
