Welcome to FTE. It seems that you have done your homework already!

 

I have the same year truck and I had a lot of pre-trubo leaks before I broke out the Buck$Zooka. Everything in my signature is a link and you can see what I did to mine to get fuel economy when I drive sane - plus you can see what happens when I exercise my right foot on a steep grade.

 

haha Buck$Zooka??? Did you make that yourself lol I will definitely be checking out all those links, I appreciate it...

 

Welcome to FTE. If you want to know, just ask, and you'll typically get several answers within hours... sometimes even within minutes of posting your question or issue.

Also, you HAVE to know and be prepared for the fact that no one here will believe anything you say unless you provide pictures to prove it!!

We all LOVE pictures!!

 

Oh yeah, that's completely understandable and expected lol I'm working on saving for this all and doing a majority of it at the same time. Pics will definitely be provided

 

Few things I would add to the list:

1. Upgrade your transmission cooler. The 6.0 cooler is a popular upgrade.
2. In tank mods http://www.guzzle7pt3.com/hutch.php
3. Fuel rail crossover from Riffraff: http://www.riffraffdiesel.com/mm5/me...ode=F731-FS-RR

 

Welcome to the club - Lots of great info & help here whenever u need it. Def sounds like your on the right track with your mods -

 

ive got a set of DI stainless one piece bellowed uppies id sell ya for a decent price when the time comes....dont need them anymore as i no longer use stock style turbos.....they are in great condition and are a very nice piece....

 

So, if I plan on upgrading my turbo to a 38r... I won't need bellowed up pipes or what? Or will I just need to replace the bellowed up pipes w something different when I upgrade my turbo?

 

A 38R uses the same thing as the stock turbo. It's if you go bigger than that you will need different up pipes.

 

Ahhh got it. So it is still smart to invest in bellowed up-pipes... I've been looking into parts for my upgrades, and calculating it all.. f***'n expensive lol

 

Yes, much easier to install the up-pipes with the turbo out.

 

Is there anywhere to get all this stuff at a more inexpensive price? Or am I looking at as good as it gets?? I knew what I was getting into when buying a diesel, just curious is all lol

 

This is going to be the best price. Most of us use Clay for our parts. Give him a call. Riffraff Diesel Performance Parts: Diesel Exhaust Parts | International Bellowed Up-pipes | Diesel Up-pipes - International Bellowed Up-pipes

 

ill sell ya the DI uppies for half the price of the international kit....told ya id give ya a good price....
