I think 6" is way overkill. The more experienced diesel guys say 4" is good up to about 500 horses then 5" for over 500 but 6"


Just my .02 worth

not worth it, you will be losing instead of gaining. If you wanna upgrade go 5 but not 6... i still think you will be fine with 4

6" is purely for ego, not performance.

It might sound cool, but it's not helping performance any more than a 5" or 4" (in most cases) could.

Well, if it's for ego... I think he should put a 10 inch on it.

You think he will be happy showing his friends a 6 incher?
