This thread is for sponsors/vendors (or users) to post a list of their dyno/race proven combination of parts and tunes to reach a good reliable 400 - 500 rwhp - 7.3L build.

The intent is giving users insight of what they need to buy and do to reach their RWHP goals.

It is not open for arguments!

Swamp's 385hp towing package
_________________________________________________________
intake/exhaust upgrades recommended/(understood)

175/146 single shot injectors
Swamp's custom tuned chip

turbo upgrades not required, but if towing AT the available power limit of this injector/tuning combination (~385rwhp)...at minimum a GTP38R dual ball bearing turbo is recommended.

regulated return fuel system recommended but not required.

Swamp's 425hp economy/hot street package
______________________________________________________
intake & exh upgrades assumed

200/30% hybrid injectors

(at minimum) GTP38R BB Turbo or Hypermax H2e

Custom tuned 6 position chip

head studs strongly recommended for aggressive drivers (this package is typically capable of producing >42-45psi boost in a hot tune/WOT)

regulated return fuel system highly recommended

after installation, fuel pressure should be checked at WOT following THESE instructions to evaluate the need for upgraded fuel system components.

NO high pressure oil pump upgrades necessary (as these injectors use significantly LESS high pressure oil than stock injectors)
