Road to the 650hp club

I have an 06 psd, I'm really wanting a streetable beast that I can put about 650 to 675 on fuel only. I want to run a 68 to maybe a 71mm turbo with 250 to 315cc injectors. Studs and egr delete coming soon. I'm wondering how my spool up will be, fuel system I should run, hpop upgrade?...etc. Any help would be great.

Thats a long expensive road. It can be done. But what do you use the truck for. Towing will be pretty much out of the question unless you go with twins

if you want streetable you can forget about either one of those injectors. i have 225s and they are too big for the street. if you want 600hp you can do 190cc injectors, stage 2 or 3 vgt turbo and nitrous, youll be around 600. it should have 500 with the turbo upgrade and 190s, then spray till you dial it in. yes youll need an aftermarket air intake, exhaust, head studs, egr delete, tuner and a fuel system to back this stuff up. good luck

There is really no need for injectors that big. The Canadian's are making big numbers just with 215cc sticks and some twins. Fill out your sig and let us know what you are starting with Then we can give you advice from there.

600 horsepower club:

The basics:

Intake (probably aFe stage II)
Exhaust (strongly recommend 4” down pipe for that much horsepower, 3.5 will work)
Sct

Precautions:

EGR delete
Head Studs
Bypass oil filtration system or Trusted Performance’s oil filter housing delete with dual oil filters (larger injectors add more soot, you need better filtration)
Gauges, for this horsepower range, I would recommend: Boost, Backpressure (one for each turbo), EGT, HPOP, Fuel pressure and Oil Pressure

The road to high horsepower:

Complete fuel system (your choice, AirDog/Fass or non-regulated fuel pump like an Aeromotive both will work ok)
Upgraded fuel lines
Injectors, 205’s should land you in the 600’s 215 – 225 will land you very deep in the 600’s if you have the air
Turbo, 66 or 68 is going to be pretty close with the right tuning, I believe you can lay down 600. Really, anything larger isn’t streetable. The chargers become very laggy and with injectors to fuel them, they are extremely smoky (not saying the 66 or 68 doesn’t fit in that category)
Compounds would be the best way. You can keep your street manors and yet lay down huge horsepower numbers
Intercooler, depending on which turbo(s) you choose, the intercooler will become suspect.
Transmission, fully built with billet input shaft
Torque converter, if you go with a single, you will need a high stall, something around 2300-2400, if you go with compounds, an 1800 stall will work just fine

Ok well should I go with a VGT hybrid turbo or go with something else like a super phat shaft, aurora 4000, or silver bullet. Also which brand of injectors, elite 220's? And also will I be able to use a small shot of the funny gas with my water-meth and break into the low 700's

i would shy away from water meth for horse power as 6.0s really dont like it.

690 RWHP and 1398torque have been done with casserlly 200s, i think a .90 shot of nitrous and a hybrid VGT almost two years ago

Excellent list!! Add to that deep pockets and 600+HP can be yours!
