Here you go Ponch

Hutch Mod link: http://guzzle.rbmicro.com/hutch.html It will get rid of the air in your fuel system and save your injectors and make it run much quieter I found.

On Guzzles site he also has the CCV mod which he calls the crankcase ventilation mod. You take a pice of 4" exhaust tubing (usually people have some laying arouond or go to the local muffler shop for a short piece) and replace the plastic pice that you see connecting your airbox to your turbo. There is a plastic vent that sticks up in there and restricts the airflow. You will reverse the Doghouse and use heater hose to vent it out to the back of the truck.
Here is the HPS line info: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/s...=451739&page=1
You can purchase the SS one from KCM diesel directly for $62.50 shipped to your door here: http://members.***.net/kcmdieselperformance/
It evens out the oil pressure for each side on the rails to smooth out the spikes in the oil pressure due to cylinder 6 and 8 firing next to each other and the injectors run on the oil pressure.
The BTS valve body will make the shifting in an automatice transmission shift much smoother and firmerespecially once you get a chip. Brian loves to work with Jody at DP-Tuner for one of the best combos around!!

For the intake I would suggest the Ford AIS with foam fender sleeve, full set of gauges, then the chip. If you go over 60hp with the chip you will most likely want to install a performance compressor wheel in the turbo. As for the chip, we like the Banks Big Hoss.
