I just purchased a NBS 07 LMM. Well actually I just bought the truck, havent even received it yet. Hopefully it will be delivered by weeks end. I have had several of the NBS Tahoes, Denalis, Silverados, Escalades, etc. This will be my first diesel. I cant wait to mod it up. I am a forum member and moderator at chevrolet forum and so far this site seems very informative. There is a ton of information on the site. I just joined today and have read, and read, and now everything seems more of a blur than before I started.
If anyone has some extra minutes to direct me to good articles, hands on experience, or recommendations for parts and or part numbers I would greatly appreciate it. I dont mind reading however a lot of info is opinion. I would like to know what works, worth the bang for your buck, etc. I dont know a lot about diesel engines, nor modifications but am a quick learner and love to work on my own vehicles. I also have a cousing who is going to help get me started with the work, he is a certifed diesel mechanic who just recently graduated from a diesel mechanic school. I just need to get the parts and goods and get together with him. Below is what I would like to start with.
Programmer/Tuner (prefer one that is not plug and removed) I like the dash pod idea that remains on the dash or A-Pillar, not sure I am ready for the EFI yet guys.
CAI
DFP Delete (information on what all this entails would be great (trying to read up on this but there is a ton of information) Tuner needs to work with this, correct?
What is the EGR block or valve I am reading about?
Lastly, pretty simple and not really performance but a good priced front leveling kit.
Thats it for early starters unless someone has suggesstions of other mods to get better performance as well as Fuel Mileage.
