Never heard of an update for turbo protection on an 06', ever. We need more info, like what was the flash number they did. Do you have a set of gauges on the truck to check boost pressure before and after? Without that gauge and a before and after, it is hard to say if what they told you is true. Some folks at the dealer don't know squat. Why did they even do the update????

sounds like a way for dodge to avoid the dual mass from falling apart by lowering the torque?
