I have an 04 6speed cummins all stock and original parts except, I have 40lbs injectors and power max programmer. Need options and advice on help me upgrade. I own a goat farm and need more power with the amount of towing that I do.

 

you have what kind of injectors?

 

I have integrity plus injectors (40lbs)

Well, if you havent already done so, replace or modify the exhaust system and make it free fowing; then head for the intake system and make it more free flowing as well. This will help your towing efforts substantially. The key is to make it run more efficiently and gain some hp, tq, and mileage all while decreasing EGTs. Oh yeah, get guages as well to monitor your mill's work.

 

Alright thanks. What would you prefer, I have an 5 inch tip I believe on it already, what gauges, or chips? Intake systems.

 

Question is, what would you prefer. My combination works really well for me as far as mileage and efficiency is concerned. I can tow my 9200 lb travel trailer effortlessly, get a steady 16-17 mpg at 62 mph (on the flats), and smoke the duals when my right foot gets an itch (not while towing of course). Any intake elbow above stock will help as well as a good mandrel bent 4 inch exhaust system. But, if on a budget, ditch the stock muffler in favor of a straight through design and ditch the kitty. that will help. Smarty and Smarty Jr. are really good tuners. A bit of research will help you decide. Others will chime in with their combinations and experiences.

 

I got 150hp sticks with a fass fuel system edge with cts monitor that has the built in gauges a 4inch exhaust bhaf a ats 3 piece manifold got an hx35/40 turbo and a clutch and i pulled a load of cows doin 70mph down the interstate just fine but thats just me i like the edge with the cts cuz it gives you all your gauges and some extra ponies!! And i get 27mpg empty and light footed doin 70 loaded i was gettin anywhere from 18 to 20

 

Alright thanks guys. Which would be a better programer? an Edge or a smarty (jr)? I have an original stock holset turbo but looking for an upgrade there also.
