Injectors, chip, other????

I've got 150k on the clock and thinking about injectors...I'd like to say I know that o-rings need some attention, UHVC need attention, etc. BUT, I like the idea of getting some more power (damn addictions!!!!). I've been emailing Jody at DP, he recommended some AC injectors ( I think they were ACs), and getting my chip reprogrammed (actually I think he said I need a new chip - my older DP chip won't work at this point).

He said that I shouldn't need to upgrade to big-oil with the injectors. I'm wondering if I there are other costs associated that I need to consider--turbo, etc... (see truck in sig).

My truck has forged rods (visual inspection) and not the PMRs. Thoughts???? Just thinking about options at this point--still would have to run it by the checkbook manager at some point!!!!

I just had the Beans single shot injectors and DP tuner installed two weeks ago. I love it. 7440 lbs truck and I got smoke off of the tires!!! The single shot injectors are supposed to give 30-50 hp and raise the fuel mileage too. Hopefully next weekend I will take a tractor to the farm and be able to do a real world test on fuel mileage. I have been having too much fun playing with the 80e tune to bother checking the mileage I was getting 14.7 pulling a 18 car trailer and 80 psi in the tires.
