Get a set of 160/30's and an FRx from riffraff, do your in tank mods and you'll have a nice set up

...and some single shot tuning for your Hydra!

I run Swamps injectors and tunes in my EX (my DD as well). I'm currently running 175/146s with intake, exhaust, WW, tunes, and an upgraded trans. No complaints rolling around on 35s for the most part as a DD, except the surge, especially when towing the toy hauler.... I haven't wanted to get into bigger turbo and additional upgrades on this motor... I'm sitting north of 400k on the clock. LOL

I agree with Bruce. At set of PIS 160/30

Mine is an 02 and has Swamps 200/30's, Hydra with Swamps tuning, regulated return, 4" exhaust and built trans. I have yet to put my 38R and bellowed uppipes on but I love the set up other than the stock turbo surges in higher settings, which is why I got the drop in.

If you don't plan on going much bigger on power a set of small a code single shots would do you, the only thing a small hybrid has over that is they will use less high pressure oil volume

If the person doing the tuning has any idea what he's doing, there's no reason to even think about hybrids "using less high pressure oil volume" than a "small set" of a-code singles because it SHOULD be a non-issue.

I am looking to put a set of inj in my Ex as well, but I do not want to have to go to a built transmission. I don't mind going to a billet converter and valve body if I need to but that is as far as I want to have to take transmission modifications.

I installed a 38r and 180/100 from full force in a ccsb on 35s. Perfect setup for a dd in my opinion. No surge and the truck pulls hard. Still on stock transmission too

I can't see you needing a full built trans for a DD Ex when you put injectors in... I updraged my trans simply because I came across a deal I couldn't pass up and the stock one was getting tired... and adding injectors, tuning, and towing more made it noticeable. My stock trans was by no means gone when it was pulled.

160/30's and a 38R go really well together. We have a lot of guys running this combo with great results. Should be right around 400HP to the wheels and you can tow just about anything you want.

Vader's Fury · Feb 17, 2016

I just don't want to listen to a 38r all day long. Besides that it sounds good.

cjfarm111 · Feb 18, 2016

You could do a t4 mount and Borg Warner sxe turbo? Kinda a spendy venture though.

Could try the new KC38, supposedly quieter than the standard, and they're rebuild-able...

weekendwarriorfsw32 · Feb 18, 2016

I have had 238/80's on my 7.3 for 4 years with a 38R all from riffraff and a Johnwoods valve body on the stock trans of 230,000 miles. I have about 80k on that set up and its driven every day.

Vader's Fury · Feb 18, 2016

Looking into the KC38r and a set of 160/30's.

Also plan to get in touch with twisted for a TC and valve body.

FWIW the billet wheels are much quieter than the stock wheel. The 6/6 D66 wheel is a good upgrade over the stock one. Better bottom end, better MPG's as well.

But the KC38R looks pretty nice also. Seems to be a good drop in for even bigger injectors than the GT38R can handle.
