Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Power question

[JArdolina]

I own a 1999 24v 3500 dually it is the best truck I ever owned... to make this short I own a Marble & Granite company and the truck is loaded with stone on a daily basis... where do I start to improve the power... It runs mint with a full load But my last truck was a 2000 ford f350 needless to say



Thank you for the help

It all depends on how much you plan on doing to the truck and how much you want to spend. You can ether start with injectors or a small box and add from there, if you are looking for just a little more maybe 275 injectors or stage 1 or 2 then a box later. Gauges are important to start with so you keep a eye on things.



Have fun

Welcome to the TDR!



Gauges, such as EGT, boost, and fuel pressure, should be the first thing on your list. Genos Garage has good prices on them.



For power ungrades, get a box such as an Van Aaken or Edge EZ then add a set of stage 2 injectors later on, considering you have a manual transmission. If you have an auto, you will probably need some modifications before you can combine a box and injectors.

You can watch the classified ads on this site and find a used box or injectors to save alittle money.



Good luck!
