Got a new truck!!
Ok I just bought a new truck (2006 Dodge 3500 Mega Cab 5.9 Cummins). I want to start adding mods to it a little at a time. What are the first things I need to do? I want to do stuff to get better fuel mileage and power first. But I dont want to get to much power just yet because I dont wanna destroy my transmission any time soon, I cant afford to replace the transmission yet. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks. Oh yea right now the truck is completely stock and I get 17MPG highway and 15MPG City, not to bad for the size of the truck, but I would love to get 20 or more.

The smarty is better than the Edge for power(which I do plan to stack the two of them soon). The only problem is along with the smarty you have to get gauges and everything. I recomend the Edge since everything is built into one. Put the hot unlock on it and its a completly different truck!

If you like a loud exhaust, you can get a straight through muffler like an Aeroturbine for example. If you need a little more, get a piece of 4" pipe and clamps for a converter delete and away you go.
BTW, if you plan on just a few extra horses, the converter can stay on as there isn't much difference in power, mileage, or EGT's with it left on.
