If you had it to do over what mods would you keep/ never do again?
Ok first off I stole this question from another site as I am not nearly intelligent enough to think of such a good question.
Anyway I would not do
1. ATS injectors, very dirty and not flow matched or flow tested
2. Custom Trans by a local builder, did not do my research, Knew guys in the area with modded trucks went to him, but his trans cant keep up with my truck now, so next step DTT
What I would do
I would keep all my other mods in my signature, I just could have saved myself some serious cake$$$$ if I had done the trans, and injectors properly in the first place.....

? Im not sure about II doing ATS injectors, but I recieved no flow sheet. But when I had them replaced they were flow tested and were not even close. Im not bashing just giving my personal experience. Althogh my installer at the time was not top notched either so that may have come into play.

I would deffinately not put a Banks six gun on my truck, but it was on there when I bought it.
I would always buy another SMARTY, and each and every Dodge Cummins I have from now on that it is available for, I will buy one for it.

I would have never run any bullydog stuff on mine. I would have tried to have insight when buying my guages, rather than having to replace them because I didnt think I would ever need one that high

Trans,Trans,Trans........ and tripple disk converter of corse! That alone is like adding 50 hp to your truck as you can "feel" the power instead of it slipping thru the converter. As far as my TST I had too many code issues and returned it, but it did make awsome power. I wish we could have figured it out but ahh well....... The Edge Juice is smooth and reliable but lacks off idle "snap". But with the EZ stacked with the Juice it is pretty good. I am going to learn more about the Smarty and may get that, seems most people like um.

I would have done a clutch before makin so much power BUT had I done it sooner I couldnt get the spring loaded dd so I guess it worked out for the best.
And I would have went straight for the tst and mp8 combo instead of tryin anything else. Now I just got to get me a smarty in the mix and see what that does.

Never would have purchased bullydog powerpup because of the Brazilian software it left in it, but the power and mileage were nice with it. Never would I buy the outlook monitor, the joystick was to small and hard to get at and I don't have very big hands or fingers. Haven't used the Smarty yet, but I can't wait. So we will have to wait and see on that one.

Actually I've done pretty well, reading about products until I'm blue in the face on DTR, then making my choices.
Granted I don't have massive HP but I do have a nice tow rig with a little extra!
