Message: [QUOTE="peixinho, post: 876159, member: 12240"] So... i have done a bunch of builds on different trucks but have never really made a thread about it. I have so many questions and thoughts about which way to go I thought I should start a thread instead of making 30 different threads My goal is to have a streetable, towable, daily driven, 700hp truck. This will be my daily driver and not a dyno/track/tow queen. Most of my builds so far have been all about getting the most bang for your buck. This build will still try to stay economical but more about finding a great combo to get the most out of the truck without buying stupid stuff that makes no difference and/or getting a 700hp truck that can't tow and cant be daily driven. I hope to have a good 500hp tow tune for light loads :rolleyes::rockon::eek: Part of this is to also find out what works and what doesn't. I plan on getting lots of dyno numbers along the way to show how much of a difference all these parts make. I also don't want to blow the truck up by running too much pulse width. I would like to have a conservative pulse width and still make good power. Hopefully that will keep cylinder pressures and temps down. I also don't want to rely on nitrous or water/meth to realize these goals. My base truck is my daily driven work truck. 586hp 2004 ccsb lariat 4x4. 191,000 miles. It is nothing too pretty but it will do. Right now I am running a KC 68mm stage 3 turbo, 175/75 warren injectors, Custom Tunes, and 4" turbo back exhaust. A couple reliablity mods. Everything else is stock. Here are my ideas so far: Air mods: Stock air filter unless I have to change it (my dyno results showed very little gains and i want the best filtration possible for where I live and how i drive) Windrunner Performance Ported intake (ordered) Intercooler (only if my stock one blows up) Intercooler boots Rif Raff (ordered) Rescue HD Y-Pipes (ordered) TKO Ceramic Coated and Wrapped Up-pipes (ordered) TKO Ceramic coated and wrapped exhaust manifolds (ordered) Stock charge pipes Turbo Options: KC 68mm Stage 3 turbo (with .72ar cover) (built) KC Stage 4 turbo (still under development) Possibly Compounds or twins some day using vgt Fuel/oil mods: Regulated Return??? 6.4 lift pump or 6.7 fuel pump??? Warren Dual HPOP or Super Secret Twin HPOP (only if using conventionals) ??? Warren 285/75 conventional Injectors??? Tuning: IDP Ficm tuning (ordered) I will try many different email tunes from Warren, TSD, IDP, and Gearhead Dyno/live tune at TSD from Chris Suspension Mods: Andy Warren 700hp tranny (ordered) Traction bars??? Rebuilt front end Detroit locker??? or Better LSD??? Tires??? (stock right now is 285/75/16) I will continue to update my first post as I get a better idea of the build and what I will be doing. Please feel free to throw out some ideas. I would love this to be a great educational build thread... so lets keep the crap to a minimal :thumbsup: [/QUOTE]
