    I have been hearing a bunch about injectors lately and i was just wondering about them

    if i were to install some 100hp injectors.......what all else would i have to do? fuel pressure gauge, new pump, probably tranny upgrades then?

    Your EGT's will definitely increase so you will want to upgrade your turbo probably... especially if you ever tow.

    Those are big injectors for the common rail, personally I would not go any bigger than 50HP and even then, like 4054x4 said you will need to upgrade the charger. I recommend the Super B Click Here for more info.

    With your Triple Dog you are reaching the limits of your stock turbo already. Are you able to get your pyro up to 1300 now? if so there is no need to add more fuel to the fire, it just gonna get hotter, you need air for more usable HP without EGT's being a restriction.

    Are you running a Cold Air Intake?
