[QUOTE="TARM, post: 1428516, member: 578"] Question: What transmission is it automatic or manual as if you add the power from anything of this and its stock and you actually plan to use the power you are looking at money there. Do not forget once you open this can of worms you will be going from one weak link to the next. If you do not want to spend the money and want utter reliably but a bit more fun power: 38R as it will give you enough power and is one very tough turbo. Set of baby hybrids that will allow it to work well with stock hpop but get you more throttle response if you ever wanted to upgrade to a slightly higher flow single hpop. 30% nozzles Bellow pipes IMHO should be a standard upgrade even for a 100% stock truck once the stock setup starts to leak. You really should replace the now very worn and weak valve springs with some CC910 even if you were not adding any of it IMHO. You can pull the push rods and see if they are in good shape at the same time. Matt@GHA tunes Reg return for fuel and use good filters that actually give absolute micron %. IF you do not understand the filter specs take some time to understand. There are no WIX/NAPA filters I would EVER EVER EVER put on my fuel system as I have main oil filters that have higher mic filtration. A filter that states say 5 micron "nominal" means that with each pass thru the filter its only stopping particle at best 14-20 mic. Donaldson, Luberfiner, Racor some others that manf OTR and other commercial engines have some good filters. You want at least absolute of 5 mic and really 3 or under is best. Same goes for oil. The lower the mic you can get the longer your injectors will last both fuel and oil. You really want a two stage filter setup but if you have to stay with the bowl then riff raff and use Racor filter. You could always add a filter inline post pump pre fuel bowl and that would save you some of the costs. You really should do a tank PU etc if not already another SOP for anyone with a 7.3 so IMO why not just replace all the hose as its cheap but whatever. For Air grab the big Donaldson filter. If its an 4r100 at least get a VB and do not hammer it hard thru the shifts and it will help the TQ and clutches live. I know people hem-n-haw about X over HPOP lines but consider most that have tried 4 line vs 2 line dual or big single HPOP see a difference. Not in power but maybe smoother running. But instead of buying one of these specialized one just find an extra OEM HPOP line the longer one maybe helpful and two head oil rail fittings. Make that you X over. We know those hoses stand up to even a decade of use. The way I see it is it can not do any real harm and is stupid easy to install. Its no biggie either way. @ 227K using standard oil and fuel filters those injectors are well worn. So you will see improvement no matter what. If you are really looking for the most life out of your 7.3 I can tell you how I would set it up outside of performance items but not sure that is the goal here. [/QUOTE]
