Newbie performance question
I have a 03 250 CC KR 6.0. 4X4
So far she has the K&N System, Juice with Attitude.
4" BullyDog exhaust and insulated intercooler pipe. 3.73 Gears.
So the question is--- What is next???

When using the Edge module, the truck's drivability will greatly improve with aftermarket transmission clutches and/or programming and control

I am thinking a new turbo will be needed next after that K&N filter lays waste to your turbo blades from a harsh dose of sand blasting.
I figure I need the reliability and don't want to dose my nice, new expensive motor with dirt.
GTP-Maybe a custom tune with some tranny controls will help get a handle on that torqushift performance as well.

Wow what a friendly board. And so helpful also.
I do not tow, some off road. And yes I do know that if you cannot afford to break something then you should not be racing. <O
</O
I am running the Edge because 95% of the time it is on mode 1. I like being able to change the performance without reflashing.<O</O
I guess my question is, Are cams, larger turbo, head work, Headers offered for the 6.0??

Has anyone ever posted a thread stating that there turbo went bad (got destroyed) due to an after market air filter? It sure seems that most are terrified at the thought of a K&N filter on a turbo diesel.

).A cam/head work and headers, while they may make some improvement in power, it is going to be insignificant for the ludicrous amounts of dollars you spend getting it done on a 6.0l.
I would start with upgrading your transmission (prevention is always better than cure) then maybe a water injection kit...
