stock 2006 looking to build some power

[TurnerN]

i have a 2006 ctd 4x4 and was looking at putting some power in it. My plan is not to go overboard, so this is what i was thinking. edge attitude, edge turbo, afe intake and rolling big power 5" exhaust. i dont really know how well this will work all togethor, but if anyone has any suggestions on other performance products that are better, PLEASE let me know. Greatly appreciated

Lenny at Dynomite Diesel has an 06 megacab and he puts down 520'ish on his stingy dyno wtih the following, Superchips programmer, 50hp injectors, HEX1 turbo, exhaust, intake and a clutch to hold it and he can pretty much tow anything he wants with the Superchips turned up without having to worry about EGT. It is a very potent package for the amount of money spent. Plus its not real shy in the :--) department either, it hits hard and pulls a long time.

I recommend you go with a 4" exhaust system system (MBRP, MagnaFlow, etc. ).

The 5" system, is in MY opinion too noisy 4" is much easier on the ears.



The AFE intake is top of the line stuff. Be sure to get the Pro Guard 7 filter.



The Edge attitude is a way to monitor temps and boost pressure. You are gonna need the Juice module to use it and add power.



The Edge turbo is from what I hear, good stuff. The Industrial injection PS62 would be a good proven alternative.



Sounds like a good setup

BTW, Auto or 6 spd?

its a 6 speed, im thinking thats what il do, but edgerat made me rethink my power upgrades. good input, keep it coming

I would avoid toying with the injectors. They would add lots of unneeded cost for a "mild" setup

You can easily make 520+ on stock injectors.



You are gonna need a clutch upgrade to hold the extra power.

The product in the above link is good stuff. But, you should only need that if looking to pull very high hp numbers



A FASS fuel system would be a good idea
