You're going to need gauges before you put in that DP Tuner. You need to be able to closely monitor your EGTs, so that you do not do serious damage to your motor.

Yes it is a good upgrade heat is what kills these tranmissions. You can get that, a tru-cool unit from diesel site, or the 6.0 tranny cooler will all help out greatly. Like Scott said get some gauges before you get the DP Tuner you'd be suprised how quick these EGTS get up there. dieselmanor.com has a pretty good deal on Isspro gauges.
