Plugged the CTS tuner into my truck, punched in my vin, was given 3 options for tunes plus guages. Put it on extreme. Have tuner back to friend. Truck now flash tuned.

Looking at a 6.0 intercooler with pipes for $300 back home. Just have to buy the e99 spider intake.
Also there is a 08+ 250 here with a shot motor I might see if the guy is interested in selling. It's a king ranch so I'd take the axles and interior and I don't know what else off it.

I was looking at it because right now I'm looking at supporting mods. $300 didn't seem too steep when i saw that a whole intercooler setup was like $1100, from strictly diesel.
I'm waiting on a few more details on other things with an '08 SD with a damaged motor. If price is right I'll be stealing parts off it.

I just wanted to see what a tune would do to her, think I'm going to put her back to stock. Although she seems to run better, I don't like how hard it shifts.
As for the IC kit it was sinister diesel, my apologies on that. $1,5xx for the kit.

Has anyone ever seen a dually converted to a SRW except it keeps the flares? Thinking of doing it to the truck since I'm not hauling anything. Not sure why except that it might handle a little better off road.
New goals for the truck:
D60 4x4 (either newer axle swap out era appropriate swap)
Flat bed (keep 5th wheel rails, more tool boxes. It's going to be the "rescue rig")
'Move' bumpers (very cool, I suggest looking into them)
Front winch at least
Halogen headlights ($357)
Custom stacks on the flat bed
Off road lights
E-fuel
Trans cooler upgrade
Intercooler
S4xx turbo
238/100 injectors
T-500 Hpop
Exhaust
Maybe a 4" reverse cowl hood
Anything else I'm missing

Someone just posted a picture awhile back of a dually with one hugh wide tire instead of the two tires. It looked pretty cool.
