Only mods will be a 4" "turbo-back" exhaust that flows a little better, (and keeps EGTs lower), and Bilstein shocks. Maybe other small things like Ipod adaptor and blue tooth, GPS/Nav, etc...

Chipping 6.0s is not a good idea unless you really know what you're doing and replace head bolts w/ ARP studs, etc... People who tow heavy and install chips/programmers are littered all over the diesel boards w/ their tales of multiple replaced HGs, turbos, EGR coolers, etc., etc...

570 lb./ft. of torque @ 2k rpm is enough for me. I want reliability.
