Attempted to install EFI live and was informed that the tuning already been installed!

Amsoil seemed to quite and smooth out the motor slightly.
Hot Shot's Everyday Diesel Treatment - add 4oz every fill up. Noticed an increase of 10% fuel economy during summer driving.

Previous owner installed EFI Live tuning with the 50HP setting. Noticeable increase in low end power and fuel economy over stock.

Removed top half of air intake cover drastically reducing air temps (at the 1st and 2nd sensor via PPE reader) and allowing significantly more air flow over stock. Minor, if any, felt performance. Minor, 1%-5%, increase in fuel economy.

Installed Magnaflow 4" turbo back exhaust from extended cab truck of similar year.

Installed engine block heater.
