24 valve help

[skilletky]

So I got me a 24 valve now, thanks Andy. I love that truck. I am not going to go crazy with it as far as power, but I want to bump it up some. I am going to put an intake, exhaust , small programmer , and maybe a small set of injectors. My question is, what is the best performing brand to use and what should I stay away from? It's an 01 5 speed 2wd. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

a intake is a waste of money .

a 4 inch exhaust , block the waste gate so it makes around 30 psi of boost and a set of 275 hp injectors .

for a programer i would seriously look at the ones blue chip offers .

you are also going to need a fuel pressure gauge and a aftermarket fuel pump ( i've been running a fas for the last 3 years without issues )

your also going to want to add a boost gauge and pyro gauge

LIFT PUMP! number one most important,can't express it enough......hell,it might be more important than a egt gauge
I like the airdodge stuff

I've ran the diabolo sport power puck,it gave me 2mpgs more and some power. Its kinda tame.

Still have it too! Wink wink

[skilletky]

definatly gonna get a fuel pump. ellis, how much? gonna pull the gauges from the 1stgen and put in this one. thanks for the info on the intake. so all i need to get is a lift pump, bigger exhaust, and ellis' power puck

[ellis93]

I'll scratch up out of my tool box and pm you a pic....then you can "make offer"
Now days they're like 179new so it's not worth "alot"

[skilletky]

sounds good. just talked to one of my drivers, and he has 2 new bhaf and is gonna give me one for free, which is pretty tits.

Glad you like it Chris. Check out TS performance for a nice box if you don't run the puck. That and a new set of RV275s should be around 350 to the wheels. I had 5 guys call me today on it after going 2 months with no calls.

it always works that way, lol. thanks for the info. will a stock clutch hold that?

[dazedandconfused]

Depends how you drive it. That isn't the stock clutch in that truck but I can't tell you if it was a stock replacement or something different. There was a paper in the glovebox showing clutch and trans were rebuilt at 198,000.

i dont plan to beat on it much at all, just a little go go. i wonder if they addressed the 5th gear nut issue. that been rattleing around in my head too

Yeah, right! Remember who you're talking to here?

Everyone keeps telling me that.

so im thinking once i get a lift pump, i am gonna get either a edge comp box, edge juice w/ attitude, or a ts mvp box. ive talked to some people who have owned or own a 24 valve, and they all like the comp box. gonna try and dig up more info or reviews on it.

[PToombs]

Didn't Edge close its doors? I remember some outfit that makes programmers closed when the EPA went after them because they couldn't meet emission specs. If you can buy a new box that would be ok, but I'd be leery of buying a used box and having the company gone when you need updates or something.

[dazedandconfused]

Quadzilla closed its doors. Chris my other 01 ran just a comp and made 305hp with just that. My bote would go drag comp for the further fueling and stay away from the juice.
