Die? You cant kill a DMax. So Im assuming you plan on doing the internals then. IMHO that should be the first thing done if your going over 600hp but you be pretty safe til then.

$1200 with 5 gauges and the control module. 3 gauge set-up is about $800.

Depends on what gauges you going to get but they average about $200 so a 2 gauge set-up will be about $600.

i still need gauges, exhaust and intake though. i want an icebox but they say they dont have them for the duramax yet but i know they do. where do i find one??. i want digital gauges but i havent found any i like. i want them to be back lit in with red or blue. i want boost and egt for sure. havent decided on the exhaust yet though
We have a duramax box prototype just havent done enuff test fits to verify it will fit every truck. pm me if you want to discuss this further

I have seen as much as 32 psi from my turbo, but that was with my quad tuner set to 135, egts weren't too friendly either
