Alright, Chip time

I was looking at going with a dp-tuner chip and was wondering what else I will need to pick up. The truck has an intake and a 4in exhaust. I know I will need gauges, the biggest thing I was wondering is if I will need a boost relief valve? Also, where is the best/cheapest place to pick up gauges?

I would definitely go with the guages. Most all of the diesel shops that advertise here can help you out.

unless you plan to run an aftermarket turbo or some serious injectors a relief valve isn't really needed.

gauges are #1! and since you already have free flow exhaust you should be set to go

i picked up my pyro and boost for $200 from jegs
