new 04 3500
Hey, new to the diesel world. had my truck for 4000 miles and wont go back!!!! ok now thats out of the way i wan to start playing with it. Im thinking of going with a S&B intake and manifold, silverline exhuast 4 inch turbo back, and power it with a edge cts with attitude. how does that sound? its a 6spd so the tranny im sure will hold. but the question i have is where do i buy my parts to get the best deals, from what i can tell xtremediesel.com seems to be the best. so if i can get some input that would be great.

Everything you mentioned is just about perfect for a new diesel owner to get his feet wet. The Edge gives good power without being hard on parts like turbos and clutches, though you may find you'll be at the upper limits of both, especially if you spring for the "HOT" unlock (i was). It keeps an eye on all the important stuff like EGT's, Boost, Trans/Clutch slip and de-fuels the engine if anything gets out of kilter. The exhaust and intake are good pieces also and should blend well with the Edge.
As far as who to buy from, go to the Home Page here and click on the Price Quote / Request a Price section. Post what you are looking for and when you click Submit, it will be forwarded to the dozens vendors here. If they have what you are looking for, they will contact you with a PM and their best price.
