Thanks for the input!

I heard you say injector issues,
I saw some info on injector cup leaks
that end up allowing fuel into
the cooling system.
But I take it you are just having fuel management
issues with yours.

Yeah, mine is a miss when cold. Misses real bad when cold, runs decent after oil temp gets up to normal, but it does have a steady miss all the time up around 2500rpm even when warm.
I have run rev-x additive and it helps for a while, but after about 1,000 miles its back. So I just figure its time to replace them.

Update.....need opinions!!
well, the extra set of heads I have had sitting around have been at the machine shop for about 6 weeks now waiting to get magnafluxed and checked for flatness, hopfully get them this week, and hopefully they are not cracked!!
I have decided to pass on the AirDog for now, just doing the Regulated Return while its apart.
I already have the OEM Headgaskets, upgraded turbo oil supply and drain lines, ARP's and oil cooler are on order and should be here next week, and I have decided after to talking to Jesse Warren to do his 175cc/Stock nozzle injectors.
So I need opinions now......I can really only afford either the GoGo Intake or the Powermax Turbo with batmowheel.
What are your thoughts? I go back and forth, Kinda leaning toward the intake as the turbo will be much easier to change later once I get more $$$ saved. But I also think sometimes maybe I should do the Powermax and just not do the intake at all, as I don't know if it will benefit me enough to justify the $1,100 as I am not building a race truck, just a reliable D/D and Tow vehicle.
What do you guys think?

Matt @ cutting edge diesel has two used gogo intakes for 850 each right now, why batmowheel?
id do powermax first and then later when you change the nozzles on your injectors do the intake and 68mm powermax modification from RCD or dozer

Yeah, the more I think about it I will probably do the powermax. Unless I magically come up with extra money before I tear it down!
I was thinking about the batmowheel just cause most people seem to really like it, but I may wait cause I dont know that I need it really. I think with the right powermax tune it really doesnt make much difference. my buddy has a batmowheel on his stock turbo and it made some midrange difderence, but he isnt sure it was $400 worth
I may have to check with cutting still.....cause sticking with stock nozzles saves me about 650 on Injectors, if I put that toward the Intake I could do it all at once still.......but probably not
