RE: Best 3 upgrades for 2005 Turbo Diesel
Naw, I meant MR. Slug up in post 3. If it is an auto, then at least a deep pan. Even with that, at a 100 extra horses the trans will probably only hold up for about 15000 miles if he's heavy on the right foot. I babied mine when I put the chip in, only had it on the 1st setting (30 horse I believe). I pulled a trailer up the pass, went to pass a slow car and slipped the heck out of it. ever since then anything over 1/2 throttle on stock setting will make it slip. Thats with only 16000 after installing the chip and I never hammered on it.

RE: Best 3 upgrades for 2005 Turbo Diesel
I've got an 06' dually that I put a superchip in it. It has two settings a performance and a towing setting. I can't feel much difference between the the towing setting and the stock but now the performance setting is just awesome. The only thing is that I've got a 6 spd and it slips the clutch when I get on it . I know that I'm going to have to invest in a heavier duty clutch but once thats installed do you think that my tranny will be able to handle it.
