Thanks madhat & megacabdad looking forward to being a member of the site. I've visited the site before and found some very good info in the past and decided to actually join this time. Lot's of good info as well as good advice. I do have plans to add a few more goodies to the new beast, nothing to radical though. Really liking the new Bully PMT, which is something I'm seriously considering. I"m also looking at installing a security syestem with remote start. Any advise? Thanks Guys.

Advise on what? What do you have done to the truck so far? I assume that you have an 08 6.7L...

Do the supporting mods before you do any preformance mods.

I can't help you on an alarm... not my speed.

Performance wise, I haven't done anything yet. Just purchased the truck mid Oct and had to jet back to Cedar Rapids, IA for work. Truck as only 3k miles and thought I would wait a bit before installing Performance Mods. My 04 Ram is was running the Bully Power Pup, but thinking about the Bully PMT or Banks 6 gun for the 08. Heard good things about the PMT but kinda new so not sure if there are any bugs that needs to filtered out before purchasing. Lot's of $$$$. Supporting Mods? Assuming your referring to exhaust, air intake, gauges etc?????

Welcome MegaRam08! I would steer clear of the Banks stuff. IMO its overpriced and under powered. You can get way more for less!!

txfiremedic, thanks for the welcome and the advice on the Banks. I'm really leaning towards the PMT I like all the options or outputs and the fact of the downloadable upgrades. I notice your running the Edge with Attitude, what are your thoughts on it vs the Bully Dog PMT? Pro's and Con's doing away with the EGR? Current MPG bites at the moment, but I do only have 3k miles on the beast.

Yes, gauges, air, exhaust... I'm not too spun up on the 6.7 side of the house... you might want to slide over to that forum and see what they have going on over there...

Stay away from banks stuff. Not a bad product, but you get more bang for your money elsewhere...
