Dont forget about a better turbo. The stock turbo is a huge restriction and will only harm performance, also you wont get the full potential out of the turned ecm

Does anyone know of a better remote PMD solution for the 6.5. I'm looking for a better fix than simply putting in new PMDs. On my third one and getting tired of being stranded in the middle of no where.

Yeah **** can the DS4 and put a DB2 on it. either that or carry a spare PMD. I don't care what one you buy or where you moyunt it. It's a roll of the dice. I have had the Heath Diesel one fail in 2 years and I had a stock one on the IP last 4. You just never know. I would stay away from Flight Systems. The old black Standynes are still the best IMHO.

there is a way I know of to make it smoke a bit more that doesnt hurt it much but if you run it with the switch on for long the engine will heat up
