Default Duramax upgrades

Just bought an '05 crew dually dmax for hauling and looking to see what upgrades evryone else has done. Already planned on changing the turbo inlet which is very restrictive on lly engines, Magnaflow exhaust, some type of either programmer or flash (considering efi live). My main interest is mileage either pulling or not. My last hauler was a 97 bbc crew dually and although it pulled perfectly, mileage sucked. thanks


Scott, If this thread needs moved, please do.

Mike,

I have a LMM and did a new air intake, MBRP exhaust and a PPE tune. Helped out alot to get the dpf off (which you don't have to worry about) but now have to put back on to get my tags.

I agree that Jody will far more about this as well as the EFI live.
Good choice on your truck.

Mike --

Since I have an '06 FORD F-350 Crew Cab Dually --- this isn't advice on a GM -- but I will tell you I'm on my second go 'round with the full Gale Banks Big Hoss bundle (also had this on my Dodge) -- I've got the intercooler -- intake -- exhaust from turbo back - their new digital dash which adds "jake brake" style braking.... and I have had ZERO issues with their stuff --- and I tow like a fool. So you might want to just look at their products/bundles to see what they have. They build their stuff "truck tuff" and "safe" for the engine at the same time.
