I posted the thread a couple days before buying the blue one, which is a 2005 6.0, which I now own..

The green one is a 1999 with a 2005 conversion front clip on it. And I don't want two, I only want the 6.0 which already has the upgrades needed.

But I am in the process of selling the green one for $15,000, but it isn't on my priority list.

UPDATE:
Coming back from columbus, GA yesterday I broke a intercooler pipe boot clamp, the one hooking the boot to the turbo housing, I was driving and it just broke, (it was a clean split right down the middle of the metal ring part), So I stuck a hose clamp on it and rode on that the 150 miles home.. I am surprised it held up!! haha

But I got a new one for it this morning, $15 through ford..

Ditch the bully dog. Why do you need/want a banks turbo and what do they even offer for a 6.0? I'll save you the headache now. Don't buy it, whatever it is. Or you're just talking about a wastegate? Why do you even want that? Shouldn't really need a wastegate on a stock turbo'd truck without any real hot tunes anyways.

Stick around and read in the 6.0 section for a while, I have a feeling your "wanted parts list" is going to change.

Nice looking truck!

I've been working on diesel truck for a couple years now, and it really hasn't changed haha

And yes, it is the waste gate.

And as stated above (i think), the bully dog came with the truck >< I am not gonna throw it away because it was free.. , I have never liked bully dog in no way shape or form nor have I even opened the box to look at it.

I plan on purchasing an Edge for simple tunes, I am not building a drag truck, just want something there, I've had nothing but good thing come from all my Edge chips.
