Hey RBFC, thanks for the info. I would certainly be looking at upgrading all the things you mention down the line. I noticed that I already have a one piece drive shaft that is suppose to be good to 650 HP. good to know there are knowledgeable people here that can help in the future. Thanks.

The fuel pump is sped up to produce about 65-70 psi of fuel pressure in the rail at WOT thus forcing more fuel through the stock injectors. While this method is approved by Ford its dumb when you see these injectors failing in NA trucks. Not to mention running the **** outta the stock fuel pump. The injectors aren't that expensive. Get'em here for $261 http://www.blueovalindustries.com/en4545.html

Hi twinskrewd. I had 39lb'ers installed with the SC. If I decide to do further HP upgrades I'll be looking at 60lb. Right now I think I'm good with the 39# injectors. If I need to upgrade to 60# injectors I'll more than likely need a boost/a/pump. I love this forum. There is so much info here. I like being able to go where there are a lot of trucks that have done the same mods. Thanks.

I wonder how well that 6R60 (I think 60?) holds the power? I really want to put a 6r80 out of the 2011s in my truck as the 6 speed over the 4 gives half a second to a second in the quarter.

I think the results would be the same. Unless its "built" its not going to hold it for long.

Thanks Huitt24. I love the boost. Quite a set up you have there. I'm just getting started. Not sure what I'm going to do next.
