The H&S XRT hands down would be the best for what you wanna do. And for the Duramax either the H&S Products, Edge EVO Races, or the PPE Hot Race

Yeah with the XRT Pro you need to make sure that the coolant in the truck is warm when you downlaod the XRT ( For some reason it seems that they download better). Also when it comes to the selecting is the dpf installed in the vehicle you need to select NO that way it downloads the delete software. After the programmer is fully downloaded you can now remove the exhaust system from the truck and unhook all the sensors from the wiring harness and remove and unplug the hard steel lines from the dpf. With any of the H&S programmers you do not need to put the sensors back into the pipe.

thanks. i think i want to go with the xrt and a 4" turbo back

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

are the 08-10 fords as easy as the 08 chevys to do the complete exhaust swap out?

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

the reason i ask is because i've heard ppl say its hard to get the exhaust off the down pipe on the fords

Yeah the downpipes can be a b****h. Most of the time we just sell the downpipe back exhaust systems because the factory dp are designed quite well for a factory down pipe IMO.
