I need MORE power!!!

I have a '99 3500 Automatic. This is my first diesel so I need some advice. I pull a 14.2k 5th wheel. What can I do to get more torque? I understand I'll need to upgrade my torque converter and install a breakout box. I need suggestions on what brands, etc.... to use. Any input will be appreciated. JC

With pulling that weight I`d 60~80 Hp injectors,14cm wg housing on your turbo for now, 4&quot; exhaust,Scotty Air,and a box. ie:Comp or TST. even a EZ would top it off nice.<br> Danny

I put an EZ on my 99 2500 last month and it feels great. But like you, I now need even more power. ;D This can get bad fast. Just waiting for the tranny to go out so I have an excuse to upgrade it.
