Turbo options.
Look into hypermax. Im not really a banks fan because they are expensive and you really pay for the name. I have some friends that use the hpermax kit and love it, kit was around 2000 bones or so- bigtex

So what did you do with your truck today?
It took so long due to swapping in my g codes, contemplating on swapping the serp crap cuz I wasnt sure on the 3g stuff and lastly doing it by myself until my friend mike showed up at 1130 pm. I started working at 3pm on friday and didnt stop to rest. I was back on the road officially at 830...- bigtex

Injection Pump source
Thedieselstore.com has pumps for 500 or so, both for the 6.9 and 7.3. Ive ordered 2 of them for random projects and have had no complaints. Shipping is quick too, but then again, I live at Ft. Lewis and they are in portland.- bigtex

Farkin' Injector line leak
Take a standard size 5/8 line wrench and cut it till it's about 1.5" - 2" long. I drilled a hole in mine and threaded some 550 cord thru the hole so I could pull it up without prying on anything.- bigtex
