To increase HP on the two stroke Detroits the first thing to do is change the injectors. I"ve got an OEM spec book that lists all of the different combinations origionally made, so if I knew what injector you"ve got I could tell you which ones would boost your HP above what you"ve got now. The next step woult be to install a turbo and possibly an aftercooler. If you install a turbo you"ve then got to rebuld the blower and install turbo rated (double lipped) seals. Now if the blower has been rebuilt recently it should have turbo seals since Detroit discontinued the standard seals some years ago so turbo seals are included in all current rebuild kits. On some models there were two different drive ratios for the blower but I believe with those the injectors had to be correct for each variety there too. These things are pretty much all you can do in the way of producing more power within OEM specs. Like another post suggested there are guys that are really into this sort of thing that may have some "trade secrets" for producting more power outside of off the shelf parts.... Good luck.
