orrrrr... intake.... gauges... DP TUNER !!!

Those are your 3 mods... you pick which one comes first ! but I would do the tuner after you have the other 2 supporting mods to back it up !

definitely gauges first then DP tuner or intake. Since you already have the straight piped exhaust you should be fine there. But you need the gauges so that you can keep an eye on what your truck is doing.

Intake, gauges, exhaust (which you have) in no particular order, trans mods are a good idea, then DP Tuner.
By chance are you a member over at ATM?
