Fuel mileage
while the truck was stock, the best I got was 15.5 on the highway. Sense then I have done the DPF delet with XRT and I got 18.7 on a 300 mile trip. I believe it will do just a tad better with a good cold air intake.

Rollin Smoke (James) is where I got mine. I think it was under $1k for Smarty,EGR delete , and 5" Alum Turbo back. Stainless will run you another $300 or so. Great service!!!

Stock I was getting 15.5 on the HWY. Now I have gotten 18.7 on a 300 mile trip.I have the 5" DPF kit with XRT.
Well I have a update. With these mods and a speed between 65 and 70 mph, I have got 20.9 miles average. Of course this was on a 300 mile trip and I hardly tapped the brake. I will be adding a cold air intake and a new air horn in the near future. Due to my clutch slipping a little, my next mod will be a new DD 3800lb Valair clutch.
