Hi everyone, I am looking for advice on what is the fastest and cheapest way to get more performance out of my 6.7 Turbo Diesel? It has power but I just dont get that thrown to the back of my seat feel when I push the peddle to the floor. I know there is turbo lag, but what else can I do to get that hardcore power, burnout feeling when I step on it?
I've thought about an air intake, but what else is out there for under $1k?
To be honest with you, it will always feel sluggish. Only way to get that throw you in the back-seat feel, is to delete all the emissions, and install Off-Road tuning. A good friend of mine has a 15 6.7 Cummins 3500 with the Aisin transmission, installed a PPEI custom tuning with AutoCal EFI Live, Bully-Dog GT tuner with unlock cable to unlock the ECM. He uses the GT tuner to monitor vital parameters, just like the H&S Mini-Max. He also did the egr/cooler delete, removed the soot cooker, and kitty cat. Installed a 5 inch turbo-back exhaust. They also offer a trans tune, similar to the H&S overdrive software tune. If you decide to go with a module, down-loader, or a tuner with emissions intact. You have to be careful, some of the companies offer dirty tunes, and will clog the DPF, and the kitty cat. Personally, if it was me, and I was keeping all the emissions intact, I would go with the TS Performance stryker module. It's a very clean tune will not clog the DPF or kitty cat. Your egt's will not go over 1,200, that's being empty or loaded, there is no need for gauges. The module installs in the harness, takes about 5 minutes or less. I have had their products TS Performance, on my previous diesel trucks.
