Looking for a 500hp build

99powerstroke7.3 · Dec 3, 2013

I'm looking to take my e99 7.3 and build it this winter. I wanna be in the 500whp range give or take a bit. I wanna keep it streetable, but a weekend puller on occasion. I'm thinking studs,stage 2s injectors not sure on brand yet, and building my own t4 mount with s366 or possibly s400 frame turbo. Open to anyone's suggestions, ideas, nd please feel free to post pics.

Already building a trans on the side

if you plan to stay at 500 get a brute 66 turbo from no limit. drop in turbo capable of 600 hp. get sticks from P.I.S. 230/100's should get you to where you want to be.

500hp is very streetable and easy to accomplish. Since it an e99 I would run the brute 66 and ff 250/100s with gearhead tuning. Your taking care of the trans and do a fuel system. Should be 500+ easy

what are you doing for the trans build? just wondering.

Get bigger sticks than you think you will need, they can always be tuned down and aren't much more $$.

I already have the l99 turbo swap done if that would give me more options for turbos

Why not just a 38r?

dsberman94 · Dec 3, 2013

brute 66 is rebuildable and actually better than the 38r. i wish i bought a brute 66 now that i know about it.

How much is the Brute 66 its not on NLTD's website?

Just saw it on their FB page, I thought the stock journal bearings fail under high boost pressure tho.

youve gotta get in touch with them on here via PM.

I'm goin bigger, I'll prolly have a set of 250/200's and a modded h2e set up for sale here soon. You'll also need an upgraded hpop, complete fuel system, valve springs and studs

I'm pretty sure that has more to do with the boost to back pressure ratio than just boost. I think the brute 66 keeps that a lot closer to 1:1.
