Not much, might pick up 20hp...

It will breath better, and the EGT's will go down with the 3" down pipe, but you have to add some fuel to get more HP.

Need to get some gauges as well, EGT, Boost and Tranny temp min.

As far as the exhaust system I would go post in the sponser section and see what they can come up with, any 3" down pipe to 4 or 5 inch system will be the same. There is no HP gain by going to a 5". Just costs more.

Gauges, Intake, Exhaust and a chip or programer will give you a nice bump in power and some better mileage if you keep your foot out of it.

Do as these guys have said, but keep in mind you're driving a one ton dually... They are big and heavy. After you do intake, exhaust, gauges, and chip... That will be the best mileage you get.
