190cc's with all the fuel they want and 1200lbs in the bed gets me 750+/- at 75mph...can climb to 1000 with a good hill ..but only because when you goose it going up a hill it feels like a horse bunching up to jump a creek...or a cat ready to leap on the bird and it's soooo much fun..lol.... I do have the banks intercooler and if I pulled more with this truck I might consider water/meth...

I want to add that if I choose I can be to 1400 or 1500 real fast and DSI who we all know could not seem to tow and keep his egt's tollerable at his altitude and went back to stock sticks.....but I have two 7.3's that do the heavy stuff if needed...Tunes can be written that pull them way back for towing and stuff that I know...

Can't you just tone them down with the SCT?

anyone tow with stage2 injectors only no turbo or tunner??
I wouldn't recommend towing with Stage 2's and no tuner. The stock injection timing curve is too retarded to give decten EGT's to live with injectors.

I have dyno'd a truck with 275's and my tow file and it did a little over 400hp with a stock turbo. You could probably run it or an economy file for towing.

So it seems like the general idea is you can do it with a moderate tune. Maybe look into an intercooler to keep the EGT's down. I wish i had more money.... haha
