pretty sure 2001 went boom

so i need some finacial advice on where and what to pick up for parts

heres the back story had the tuner and "go fast goodies" on for a month or two and went to the dunes for the day and in 500 miles the truck burnt more then a gallon of oil with the tuner on the 60hp tow setting.

well now i have a knock and not sure as to what all i need since i havent pulled the engine apart yet.

i wanna up the hpop, turbo and studs at least while im in there. and then stage 2's down the road i just wanted to know the best parts and prices where to get them and such.

any help would be appriciated!

forged rods have let go at lower hp levels than PMR's so its pretty much take your chances and see how you come out
