any ideas on adding power
 
I do alot of heavy hauling and i was wondering what are the best ways to get more power and torque but still maintain a dependable truck and safe egts and boost. its an 02 3500 5.9 ho 6 speed stock except edge juice w/attitude

As far as dependability, do you have a fuel pressure gauge? How about a good lift pump (FASS/AirDog)? Those are a couple things to keep you driving, instead of fixing.

Stage 1 or 2 injectors, Air dog lift pump, cold air intake, exhaust

if in were you i would get an exhaust that would help lower egts and i would get the snow performance water meth it lowers egts even more and is an awsome upgrade for pulling

a water meth systems has crossed my mind alot and even thought about about bigger or twin turbos but didn't know how they would effect the performance with hauling. and info on o-ring the head cause i've had alot of poeple tell me it would help the head and gasket last longer and arp studs

fass fuel system, cold air intake, 4" turbo back exhaust swap over to full synthetic oil motor and differentials

it depends on how big the turbo is i think a 62mm turbo would be good for a tow rig but correct me if im wrong

this depends on exhaust housing size and injector size. I towed pretty heavy with mine but it was laggy with the 14cm exhaust housing
