diesels like to breath,and get rid of the exhaust.So an intake and exhaust upgrade will help your diesel.

ive been told about the silencer ring and also the baffles in the hosing going into the turbo and knocking the baffles out but i think ill just fab something to replace that so i can keep the stock part for various reasons. for the stacks i know it will probably be a pain to install but i think it will be worth it in the end
