Default wrong

Your Dad did not do a superchip, he tried the Edge.

Stay away from the lift and tires if you want fuel efficiency.

Look into the MBRP 4" aluminized bolt on kit. If u look hard enough u can get a good price. ( i got 300 shipped to door. turbo back.)
Biggest thing to do is make sure all the truck maintanence is up to date. LINK lots of good info here

the efficiency wasn't for the fuel mileage it was for turbo lag. efficiency on exhaust. and your right it ws the edge i was just looking at the super chip page comments and it was on my mind.

Give some of our sponsers a chance, I would go with a chip from Power Hungry Performance, a set of Isspro Gauges from Diesel Dawgs and a good exhaust system from any of the vendors.
