bullet proof 6.0
Just got my truck back bullet proof oil & EGR kit, New heads w/ARP Studs, Garrett stage 1 turbo, radiator SCT Tuner replaced the Banks Six gun w/ PDA (for sale by the way). To add to the already installed Banks dual exhaust, air induction. Any advice on custom tunes?

I would imagine that since you used the PDA that was your gauge setup. I would first get gauges before I would think about tunes. Even on a stock truck I would want gauges. I could be wrong, but most people get the PDA to also use as a gauge setup.

Air kit really isn't necessary, in fact, can do more harm then good. I've got over 500HP at the rear wheels and I still use the stock setup. These aren't 7.3 engines that could use a boost in air over the stock system.

Yea. The 1st generation LiveWire and the 6.0 really didn't have that great of a reputation. Customer satisfaction is truly about 50/50.
Now with the second gen. LiveWire those issues may or may not be there.
The only thing that I really look for no matter what electronic (as far as PDA, LiveWire, DashDAQ etc) gauge system you were going for, I would make sure you have a spot to add in a fuel pressure probe along with an EGT probe.
