Love the height going from my 2WD on 18" to the 4WD FX4 on 20"s. Still not used to how quiet it is. doesn't sound like a diesel. itll take some time to get used to the loss of power, my 6.4 was fully deleted, AFE intake, Sinisted pipes and tuned. gunna let the warentee run out b4 i start upgrading

That's what I said about my 6.4 but by 62,000 miles my EGR was clogged & I just did the deletes

Watch out for your turbo, their ceramic ball bearings seem to turn to dust at 100k ish

Yeah that issue seems to be hit of miss from what I’ve here from other 2011 owners several have well over 100,000 and no issues some have had issues at on 60,000 guess it’s all up to luck. For now I’m just going to ride it hard and see what happens while it’s under warrantee. When I get closer to end of warrantee or myself voiding it with deletes I’m going to look into replacing the turbo preemptively. I am really leaning towards the sequential turbo set up. That is if I can ever make peace with the price tag
