I've been a member here for a while. Found the inspiration and info I needed to lift my 2014 single cab 1500 and turn it into the truck I always wanted. But recently I've been bored with it and decided to bite the bullet on a 2014 Laramie crew cab with the 6.7 Cummins. Its a completely different animal but I'm really enjoying it so far but as usual the mod bug lingers on. So I'm really hoping you guys help me with a question I've been researching online.
I want to delete the truck. EGR, DPF, DEF, catalytic converters, muffler and all with a turbo back exhaust and S&B intake. I've been researching tuners and as much good as I've heard with the MiniMaxx I think I want to go the EFIlive route and have one solid tune written to serve my purpose. But all the info I've found is guys running HOT 100+ hp tunes and babying the throttle to avoid transmission damage or blown head gaskets or worse. Thats not my driving style and I want to be able to put the pedal down and the truck stay solid. Why is nobody really running a 30 or 60hp tune on their dailys? My thought is, with the truck deleted and breathing in and out better, wouldn't 30hp be a gracious plenty without all the factory restrictions? This really has me baffled. Please help me understand why nobody seems to be erring on the side of caution? I'm paying a nice little chunk on this truck every month and have no desire to build the transmission anytime soon.
