The top 3 items that EVERY diesel, regardless of make or model, needs to have to start safely making power:

1 - GAUGES! We can't stress this enough. This needs to be THE very first purchase you make and there are many ways to go about it, but without them, your engine is living on borrowed time.

2 - AIR INTAKE. Letting your engine breath and allowing the turbo to spin freely will make an immediate impact on your exhaust gas temperatures and turbo response.

3 - EXHAUST. The stock exhaust system on your truck is restrictive; it's designed more for sound deadening than it is performance and efficiency. This causes backpressure and heat buildup and robs your engine of performance.

There are literally HUNDREDS of combinations of these parts that will work on your truck, selecting the ones that will support what you want to do in the future is the key to ensuring good performance and keeping YOUR costs down in the long run.

Notice that we haven't talked about a single power adding modification yet. The 3 items above should be your very first priority if you plan to add power or tow heavy.
