Default Need a plan of attack

I'm workin' on a limited budget and need some idea what the best order to do mods would be. Just ordered minotaur & autoenginiuty so tuning is taken care of. Any and all advise is welcome. The list of mods I'd like to do.

gtp38r turbo
better intercooler(which one best bang buck)
small hybrid inj(thinking swamps 200/30%)
reg return fuel system(again best bang)
Air dog II(do I really need it?)
Adrenaline HPOP(possible have weak one anyways get 1211 w/edge on race tune & start time seems longer than others)

If I owned a diesel I would probably go with:
1. Turbo.
2. HP0P
3. Then fuel reg w/injectors.

1. Turbocharger
2. HPOP
3. Injectors

I recommend these in this order. That way the truck is going to get parts it needs up until the injectors come along.

Until you get these three things, I wouldn't worry about the rest. The intercooler wouldn't be on my list at all.

1. Turbocharger
2. HPOP
3. Reg. Return
4. Injectors


I would not worry about the intercooler either. Air dog would be nice but it wont be necessary for that size of injector.

-Drop the KNN for either an AFE or S&B
-Turbocharger: GTP38R, High Tech Big Bad Wolf, or Hypermax H2E.
-HPOP: Swamps Gen 3 or a Stealth Pump.
-Injectors are going to depend on the truck use.
-ATS Intercooler
-CFM Intake Manifold
-Fuel System, I would recomend an AirDog II
-ATS regulated return
-ARP Head Studs
-ARP main studs (if you plan on making big power)
-Water/Meth Injection

This is not in order, but just things you should consider. Please let me know if you want prices of have any questions.

Thanks,
Kenny
