2009 Silverado?  It would not be soon but eventually I would like to put a small single on my truck.  I know nothing about fuel injection, injectors, duites cycles tunes etc......Thats all the fuel injection words I know HAHAHA.  Anyways would I have to change fuel pumps for like 400hp?  Would I need different injectors?  Then how do I tune it???  Anyone help?

Your pump will be ok to about 450whp. You will need injectors and a good tune. Throw some tr6 plugs in it and fab away. I turbo and tune new GM trucks. Here is one I did 5850lbs on 22's.
