RE: How to speed up Turbo
The local Cummins guy says the 2006 has a 4" down pipe (???) and adding a 4" exhaust will do nothing. Are you talking about removing the muffler?
Also said that Cummins says the K&N filter does not doa good job and will void the warranty. Are there better filters available? This is a local dealer mechanic that has a greatrep with CTD's. He has no problem with the chipjust says take it out if major warranty problem comes up.
I know nothing about the CTD except I really like mynew toy.
Thanks

I talked with the guy I bought this from. He said he opened everything up on his 2006 and it helped a ton. Mine has plenty of power but there is a small lag time before the turbo cuts in. I drove a 2004 with the Banks on it last night but it was a 6 speed and I could not shift it fast enough to tell what was going on. It had a little lag but I would hit the limiter so fast it didn't matter, I was bouncing off the windshield. I am going to try and find a automatic to try.
How about opinions on the K&N Filter. Again the CTD guy here says it is not a very good filter and does a poor job of keeping trash out of the engine. His comments not mine.
Another question. You guys that are running automatics with chips that add 120hp+, will the tranny hold up to them. I can tell mine does not like the added hp from a dead stand still. I can already tell I might have to try more but I don't want to buy a transmission the first year.
Thanks

As for the HP on the auto. I "try" not to run my Juice above level 3 (70 hp / 150 tq) from a dead stop, other wise the tranny isn't too happy. Once I'm moving (like on the highway) and want to screw with somebody, I'll put it on level 4 (100 / 180). I always have the tranny slip on the Attitude and I think I watch this more than I watch thst EGT or boost, as I never have problems with those 2.
If I hammer on it, even rolling already, on 4 or higher the tranny will slip once you get up over 2200 rpms or so.
Normally, I've been driving on level 2 (40 / 100) during my day to day driving. Keeps things nice and happy.
