Jusat wanted to say hey I am new on this website. I just bought my first turbo diesel and I am loving it. It is a 1998 Ram 3500 ext. cab long bed dually. It is black with tan leather. As soon as I got it I straight piped it and put a K&N filter in it. I just now put a Waste-gate turbo fitting in the turbo so I can push about another 5-6 psi. well just wanted to say hey. If you anyone has time. Can you tell me the best chip for my truck and where a place is to get it at a good price. thanks

Welcome to DTR! Look in the DTR store for some good chip's...i'm not sure what would be considered the best, but i'm sure you will get a lot of advice from others on that! Start by doing a search for chips and that will get you started...

Dont put on a k&n

try scotty, afe, or bhaf. anything but k&n.

now, i reckon you've got a 98.5 cause you say that you would like a chip. So what kind of HP are you looking for? I would do the smarty for starters, then stack a tst on top of that, then go with some injectors. Of course, all this will need a new turbo. and a trans/clutch upgrade. We need a little more info before we recommend whats best

btw, welcome to dtr

WELCOME!!!, THIS IS A GREAT SITE TO LEARM AND ASK/ANSWER QUESTIONS, FOR THE BEST CHIP? I THINK ITS ALL PERSONAL PREFERENCE AND WHAT YOU PLAN ON DOING WITH YOUR TRUCK, BUT WHEN YOUR READY TO BUY GO TO WWW.DIESELUP.COM THEY HAVE THE LOWEST PRICES ON THINGS I'VE EVER SEEN AND THEY ALSO PRICE MATCH ANYONE ELSE IF THERE NOT THE LOWEST
