you can build a 400hp truck with some bolt ons....
gauges is the simplest part....if your already scared, time to do some research, all the other stuff is already documented and folks here will help
with all the rest...you can do it yourself, but you best be informed....
intake
exhaust
injectors
new chip
superduty hpop (or your flavor of some kind of oil system)
think about a fuel system
think about a new turbo
think about adding an intercooler, cuz there is no way you drive a 400hp truck without one
suprised no one has mentioned that you WILL NEED tranny upgrades...
some guys have gotten by with just a TC and valve body upgrades, but I dont think it will last being a daily driver without some internal tranny work as well, you didnt say if it was a auto or manual, either way, you'll need to address the transmission/clutch
there are other loose ends, but after you get started you can address them..
