Hello to all!

I've finally joined after months of soaking up info as a guest user. Hope someone can answer a few questions:

I'm looking to hit 500hp for the least amount of $$ (hoping for under $2k in parts). Truck is currently stock except for an upgraded P7100 (don't know what fp or springs; waiting for Piers to get back to me on that). I know I need pyro,boost, and fuel pressure guages prior to bombing, but what should be upgraded to get me to 500?

anyone have dynos on BHAF vs an expensive cold air intake?

any recommended 4" pipes?

Thanks!
