Cold air intakes have not been dyno proven to add anything buy sound untill you get into the 500rwhp range and oiled filters such as a k&n tend to cause problems from the oil getting on the MAF sensor. And exhaust, most D-Max guys runn a MBRP butin this department they are all pretty equil you can get a good cheep 4" from either summit or jegs, and if you plan on removing the cat you will need a code blocker for the egr, and the last thing you might want to do is block the egr off they are no good and jusrt dirty up the inside of the engine!

Hope this helps

thanks caleb what does the ppe tuner look like and is it like the edge tuner that has the built in digital pyro and whatever the other gauge is? and the turbo boost increaser what and how does it work? egr block off dirtying the engine? i also thought of getting a 4.5 exhaust installed and running no muffler. but dont diesels need backpressure to make the turbo spool up?

thanks
