Don't have them on the site, but I can get them. I would just stick with XDP though. They specialize in the diesels, and they have been good to you so far.

And studs will be necessary if/when you throw a bigger turbo on there. Even guys with the stock turbo are blowing head gaskets with the more aggressive tuning, so its better to be safe then sorry...especially if you are running a turbo capable of pushing 50psi boost.

Got it. I'm sticking with the mild tune with no ATT at the moment, and I let it warm up to about 190 degrees before I get wild into the skinny pedal. So hopefully I'll be safe.

Took a little trip yesterday and hauled a couple vending machines on a 14 foot dove tail trailer... Not much weight for the CTD, but she handled it extremely well! Tow/Haul mode, Exhaust Brake, and the tow tune all on.

I like to make it rain for all the forum vendors lolz, and you've also treated me extremely well in the past! Maybe I'll grab some AMP steps from you as I'd like to grab those possibly in November or next years tax time. :waytogo:

Only reason I know about them is my buddy has all TGC on his truck, and the thing rides like a luxury race car. It's tight, and smooth and he's got the 6 inch on 37's!

So without breaking the bank, I'm gonna mimic what he's got, and if I'm happy I'll stay there.

Here's his truck:
