Tranny upgrade???

I have a 2006 cc/sb Duramax and finally getting ready to do some upgrades.
My issue is trying to figure out what to do to the tranny. Bassically I know there are a lot of different mods for the tranny, but how much power will each handle?
I am still unsure about all the mods I will do.(depends on tranny).
Thinking about the following mods:
1. 4" turbo back exhaust.
2. Edge Juice w/A2 or PPE with some sort of moniter.
3. EGR blocker plate (still unsure about issues with that.)
4. Intake (have heard that may not be necessary)

Any input you guys may have would be appreciated...
Thanks,
Rob

keep it under 90 extra hp you will be ok. I never replaced my air box, all ways told the factory flows enough air to support the extra hp. but the blocker is a must and the tuner is ok. I say do it and have fun.

I understand that 90 hp is the line so to speak before damage. I will be going over 90 hp but how much depends on what I need to do to the tranny.

Thanks for the replys

The Stage IV should be around $2700 plus a 300 core. It will vary just a little from vendor to vendor, but should be close to that.
