^ Ima keep that in mind for the future.

My transmission is what scares me about performance mods...gotta use your head and not blow up the tranny playing with a high/race setting on tuner/programmer.

Are on Dodgeownerforums.com by any chance? I've been visiting the cummins section of that forum and it seems very friendly to newbies, where some other diesel forums are not newbie friendly.
Yep...Smitty on there also. Very good place to be for diesels. Highly recommend it.

Yep...That is Rich. He just bought a EFI live tuner. Suppose to be the top of the line in tuners. Change about anything there is to change ECM wise. He is the most knowledgeable person I know when it comes to diesels.

Sounds good! Think you will like the place... especially for the diesel part of it.
