Strength, peace of mind and a better shifting transmission than the day I bought the truck new. Mine set me back $5k when I did it.

Bigger better torque converter beefed upped gears clutches shafts. They are also doing up pipes bigger turbo housing, delete the ebv and then going to reburn my chip. Going to close my eyes when I hand over the credit card. Man these are the nicest folks you will ever meet. They let you watch and the explain what they are doing and why. I especially like that they are just easy going and not a bunch of know it all blowhards. I've been looking forward to this day for years and I have not been disappointed. I will post how she runs at the end of the day.

Transmission and 6.0 cooler around 5k. I wouldn't wait to you have problems unless you can do without the truck for about 6 weeks. My truck has 248k and I did not think I had a problem but he showed me my gears and clutches and it wasn't going much further. If it leaves you on the side of the road it is going to cost you a lot more in my opinion.

Well about 90 miles since I left BTS and all I can say is oh &$#%! If you drive a 7.3 and you have not deleted the Ebpv pedestal and added the larger turbo housing do it now. That plus his tranny and tunes and my truck has been awakened. You talk about a towing machine. Now I'm broke but you can't wipe the grin off my face!
