Gauges first... Then you can see if anything you do really helps performance... Also, if you chip it is almost a mandatory item you get an EGT gauge so you don't "over" do it. Do you have the 5.9 or 6.7? With the newer 6.7 it may be more diffifcult to find a good exhaust due to the emissions regen, etc. i think I counted 3 different sensors on that exhaust... manual or auto? maybe need some more info on what exactly your truck is...

I think Edge has come out with a Juice for 6.7's now? Gauges first. I agree with snoyes, your options for a 6.7 are pretty limited right now. Give it time, and I'm sure the performance industry will have lots of stuff available. Now, if you have a 5.9? Lot's of stuff out there for it. Use the search feature and you'll find hours of reading! Oh, and welcome to DTR!

you might want to upgrade your tranny/cluth along with your gauges if you want to be able to use the power.

And the Smarty will black out the sky. And with the deletion of the Torque management you will smoke your transmission with anything above Level 5 (I think the booklet only allows auto to safely run in level 3).
