Thanks guys, I forgot to mention my dmax is a 2006 with a LLY. I probably will go with a PPE but i would like something adjustable on the fly like EDGE but from what i've heard about them, i decided not to go that way. Banks sounds pretty nice and i like their idea of their safeguards to prevent my tranny limping or other things that can harm my new pickup.
the truck already has a 4" silverline cat back pipes but it doesnt really sound any different, barely even loud at all (considering that i am already deaf/hard of hearing). I dont really like the silverline pipe at all and been looking for the best deal for a 4" turbo back. I guess i will not be needing a boost stick if im gunna get a PPE. It was just an idea. I dont really mash my throttle as i used to with my old truck, im gunna take better care of this one better than i did with my old 1500.

For a cold air intake, i have been thinking about the Banks Ram Air but however i am not sure if their filter element are oiled or not. I dont like the oiled element because it screws around with the MAF sensor too much and i have to clean it quite a few times. Im just looking for an oil less filter element. Sometimes soon i will be modifying my mouthpiece as i have read on other threads to smoothen out the air turbulence and hopefully lose some temp because i live in the valley of arizona and its pretty hot (around 110-115 degrees in the summer). I have been thinking about a lower thermostat like a 180 but im not sure if thats good for it.
