01-04.5 LB7 Duramax PowertrainDiscussion of components that are directly involved in the power production and all that is needed to get and keep the truck moving . Engine , Transmission Ect
Well from what I researched/read,the 04.5-up can hold 650hp without hurting bottom end.Well yeah I forgot I have a 2001 so im probably gonna be holding at max what amount?Well alright how about,how much will it take to get my truck into the 11's?
Lots of trucks will make 650hp for awhile. In a 2wd you will need at least 700hp to run 11's, probably closer to 800hp. I would do a tranny a small turbo upgrade and some good tuning and your 2wd may get into the 12's. that is about as far as you can go safely with no internal work.
Mine came off the dyno the other day and did 540RWhp and 1090rwtq. My issue now is that im running out of fuel. There is only so much a stock CP3 and no lift pump can do

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ and lots of it...drop back into the 500's on HP and your Duramax will last alot longer..
i wouldn't look at anything else but EFILive if you want big HP but if you want a streetable t6ruck that will last a long time go with the ATS E-Power or PPE Hot ET+2..

Once you upgrade one thing, you have to do another, and once you get so high in HP and upgrades, then things start breaking, etc, etc. So unless you have a endless money pit, good luck.

Not to be negative or anything it is gonna take a lot of that green stuff and time. But if you are serious about this good luck. Might want to add a few stages of nitrious.
