ordered me a new truck on friday
ordered a new 06 silverado 3500 DRW 4x4 turbo diesel. its the newer diesel with more hp and even more torque. got a sunroof, bose stereo, and some other neat little things. i did this because these get more gas mileage then my current 8.1 gas motor

the truck isnt for performance, its for towing my car trailer. i want more performance and the bully dog system will be just fine. i dont want to get into ripping open a brand new trans and all for upgrades on it to hold up.

Those trucks are just sick. They leave such thick black smoke after they run its hard to see the trap numbers!

im good friends with the owners. they just got new turbos to run 65lbs. the fins on one was bent so they have to wait for a new turbo... that any theyre going to be getting around 100hp from a new windsheild washer fluid setup

The truck already has 650ftlbs stock, class leading by the way...
Duramax is KING!!
IMO, should have waited for the new pick ups coming in the spring. New chassis.
Did you get the 6spd Allision trans as well?
