Should improve economy, not exactly sure what the numbers are. Maybe try asking in the 6.0L forum. They'd know more. Reliability shouldn't be an issue for water/meth injection cools the intake charge and cooler, denser air is always good for any motor even gas motors. You should see a total improvement with it. Just make sure you use distilled water so it doesn't rust out your turbos. Look around on the internet a bit you'll find a lot. I know coolingmist and ATS have water/meth injections with great customer service. Hope this helps any.

Me too except you can never have too much power (unless you drive stupid).

Everything voids your warranty it seems. It's possible if you've got a good dealership with good diesel techs and a flexible service manager to have them install it and okay it. I've heard stuff like that. I believe it's easy to uninstall so you may be able to just take it off like most people do with intakes and programmers.
