Default help on mods please..

ok guys and gals i know that this is a repost but wanted help on what mods i should do first on my truck for the mods i am planning to get... the only thing i have on my truck is an amsoil air filter other then that it is all stock... mods that i know i want: edge juice w/attitude, 5" stacks maybe an Aero muffler if its to loud, ats intake, DTT V/B......i think ill be happy enough with the power that the edge gives me but i want at least a little smoke for my stackswill just these mods give me smoke? if not, what do you guys suggest.im pretty new here so imjust going off of what i have already read on other forums. will my tranny hold up? any other mods i missed that i need? any input would really help thanks and sorry for all the questions like i said im new to owning a Cummins and have alot of em...


as for what i have read should i do my mods in this order????
I. edge juice w/attitude (so i can get some gauges)
II. stacks and intake (so it can breath better)
III. DTT V/B (to toughen up trans)
IV. then ill be able to use my edge....

I started using my edge as soon as I got it. It'll slip the stock tranny on level 4 if I'm really into it and on level 5 it will slip it real easy. I usually run it on 1 economy around town and 2 towing if I'm towing. I might turn it up to 3 to play a little. See my mods below. I dont have any problems and am happy with my setup. I'd love to have some 5 inch mitre cut stacks if I didn't pull a fifth wheel. Good luck.

i would strongly advise taking the tranny into consideration first..as i am now realizing i should have done that before anything....but now it is fixed, but tranny was the last thing i did.

here is my order:

EDGEwith Attitude
F.A.S.S. Fuel System
AFEStage 2
Magnaflow 4 inch
Injectors
Tranny....VB, TC, Bands, soonBILLET input and output shafts.....
Smarty Programmer (best thing i bought so far)
CFMIntake Manifold

Your order is fine if you have enough self control not to go higher on the Juice than level 3.
