When and if they come out with something for these trucks, remember that the cab and chassis and the pickups are a different setup. Be sure you get what is for your particular model. That being said, the dealer where I bought mine told me that there was a meeting for the shop people with Dodge and they were told that any sign of tampering or chips will void the warranty. I don't think they are messing around this time, is it worth it to you?"

Why would you modify a perfectly good engine, buy a computer, RC car, etc. to modify, it's a lot less costly if you screw up.

my $.02...if you just purchased a 6.7 and it feels slow, let it break in for 2000 miles, and then see if you still think you need to modify it. I hated the performance of mine until it hit 950 miles. It now has 2600 miles on it and it seems like it just keeps getting better.

I still want some performance gains in the low end of the rpm range, but what I would rather have is some improvement in the fuel mileage area. I'm still getting about 14.1 avg. I keep my foot in it, so maybe I can't complain.

I second what EB290 said. I guess I am just too old fashion?

yeah they were not messing around with the old engine either if they knew if you had a chip they would of voided the warranty to so there has not been any changes. So anybody tried one out yet? I would even like to know about the bullydog or the ts mp-8 I would really like to know trying figure out which one to buy

My dads 6.7 has PLENTY of power....and the 6-spd manual really puts it to the ground. Some guy already tried selling him a chip and he just laughed at him and said, "How much more do you need?" Plus, being a NEW engine with plenty of bugs to be worked out, we dont think its worth losing the warranty over.

as far as the warranty goes, is it not still in the owners manual that they must prove that any damage you have was caused by aftermarket accessories before they can deny you warranty work? I know it was still in the books on the 05' models? I mean I realize where they're coming from, but if you wanna get real technical about it if you put a set of nerf bars on ur new truck should it void the warranty? cuz technically it's an aftermarket mod??? I had a buddy who had just a boost gauge & pyro in his old 04' & they told him they couldn't work on a transmission problem cuz it was "chipped" & the truck had never had a box or programmer or anything, they just seen the gauges & assumed it was chipped?? never checked it with the scan tool, just "assumed" do you guys think that kind of stuff is right????? seems like they're getting a little bit ridiculous with the warranty crap???? sorry for ranting, & I don't wanna start a war over the warranty stuff, but like I said I think they go a bit overboard with it sometimes???

Not really, more like the customers going overboard with mods. I wish some of you guys had to sit on my side of the desk for just one week. It would really change your out look.

I would vote to mod the truck. The factory has always said no warranty on anything where it was due to a mod or not. You have to fight to get warranty any kind of service, period.
