If it is a Lift pump you need there are a few options, I am on my 4th one so I have been through this Car Quest has them made my AirTech for $187. 35 which a little more exspensive than if you was to buy from say a Freightliner dealer which comes in a cummins box for about $127. which is still...

Just my view but I would say not much more than 65-70Hp chip on the safe side, I had a hypertech III programmer which adds about 66 hp to the rear wheels and the trans was fine for the 20K miles I put on it, put another 65 to it and the trans was bucking and slipping after a week. The Trans from...

Not that I am aware of most of the difference in the engines is beefed up pistons, gallery cooled pistons and software adjustments. There is a pretty cool website from Cummins that pretty much tell you most everything you need to know about their dodge Cummins engine. # 29 on the list addresses...

Thanks to everyone who replied I believe I am going to try the Stanadyne Performance formula heard lots of good things about their product. $23 for a 1/2 gallon does that sound about right? I am sure there is many other great additives out there also such as Ams Oil been using their Synthetic...

I am wondering what is the best Fuel Additive on the market for these VP-44 pumps and for the compression ring. I heard with these low sulfur 500 and soon to be 15 ppm fuels an additive is a must to keep everything lubed, but there are too many choices out there. I heard that Power Service is...

no noise should be made when the wastegate opens it willjust blow the excess boost out the exhaust without you knowing,but u might have boost backing up and going back through the air-to-air i would say free flow exhaust and filter would help if not they make a kit that will purge the turbo...

thanks for the info appreciate it chad

I haven't found an answer to my question yet i was hoping maybe some other Diesel Guru here could help me out. I don't believe it is a problem just kind of curious what it is. I got an 01' 2500 with the Auto, under WOT accel and then let off the turbo makes three short bursts like tisk,tisk...
