From EFILive? I'm no expert but the possibilities are endless. It depends on how much you are going to upgrade the rest of your motor/truck. I know there's guys on here makin 500 RWHP with the stock turbo, EFI and the supporting mods. With EFI you can make your own tunes, thats the beauty of it. There are no set power levels, because you make the tunes and change them to suit your needs. You can also get tunes from other people, and use them on your truck. Guys like IdahoRob (in this months Diesel Power (i think thats the one) magazine), make custom tunes for people that have EFI.

The good thing about it is if you get a bigger turbo you can still use EFI, unlike most other programmers. You can change virtually anything and everything with it. It makes ford and dodge guys super jealous!!!!

Ya he's right, I'm sure the bullydog is doin good, but he's right, EFI is the ultimate. The guys makin 600-700 or more hp... they're all runnin EFI.

Do yourself a favor, do a search on EFILive and read a bunch on it. It'll blow your mind. Then call IdahoRob and talk to him for a while about your wants and needs, and how fast you want to go. He'll explain it WAY better than I can.

Prolly not too well, but just wanna see how it does. Oh yeah, spring clamps and stops! Think I got the basics covered! Getting kinda anxious!

if your not gonna hang any weight, I would probally run about 60 psi in the rear tires and probally about 16-18 in the front, i know it sounds bad but it works well!!! if you hang weights on the front depending on the amount maybe about 22-25 in the fronts!
