No way man. Maybe with a junk yard turbo and bottom of the barrel ebay parts that will break on you. If it was a 5.4 you could put a lightning blower on it for $2000-$2500, but that's the cheapest reliable fi you can get on this body style truck.

Cheap, Fast, Reliable; Pick two.
Lightning top end swap will run you $3k. No Turbo kits currently available on the cheap.
Pay to play.

Start with gears, then a Dyno Tune using SCT. Junk the Jet stuff and switch to the things that are known to work.
Gears, Cams (Depending on your goal), Long Tubes w/o Cats, Blower or Turbo.. etc.
Unless you're comparing Back to back dyno's your butt Dyno is NOT a good way to determine gains. Especially with 3.55 gears slow rolling when you're at most talking 10-15flwhp with your mods and no real tune.

There's a difference between being honest and being an a****** is not a very fine line with your comments... Did you even read it? I'm asking for help and ideas not jerk answers... You must be a Bernie Sanders supporter... they are always good a a terrible arguement. 😃🇺🇸

There's another forum I spend a lot o time on where I'm actually expert
That has same issue as here
And here it is:
The people that know the most, are tired of answering the same old extremely basic questions from people that are too lazy to simply Google easy things first
There is a whole generation , a Facebook loving generation, that expects to have answers laid out on a silver platter for them for free, without having to invest any effort at all. They want simple easy answers, to things that don't have them often. then either don't want to listen, or argue because they don't understand, they have no background knowledge, and they don't respect the experience and knowledge of those that do.
You can often tell by a posters attitude and first post, if they have a clue, and do they really have a chance of success, or are they wasting people's time. There's a lot of clueless posts . Want certain people to help? Show them your worth their effort of helping.
On the forum I do a lot on, I no longer answer anything so basic that someone could Google it and read easily find their own answer.
I also won't answer " What's the best XYZ?" There's no best anything and someone doesn't know their specific needs, they aren't serious enough to help.
This is really a problem today with a whole generation, we see it in many young people we hire. Lack of self sufficiency. Expecting to ask and have others do things for them that they should do.
