I dont know what the hell it was.. But I saw something briefly on a truck modifying TV show.. It made that Duramax SMOKE. I think it was an electronic chip of some sort. But either way it was going flipping FAST. It was a huge power gainer, though Im unsure of the price or product, but I know it had 5 different settings to it.. If that helps.

If I were you , I'd invest in the Banks six gun chip. It seems to have the most overall performance gains, and multiple settings from stock, to towing, to kickin some muscle car ass!! Also look at getting an aftermarket intercooler, and larget intake tubes. If your really wanting some power, check out a propane injection kit.

Its just a chip that you plug in, under the hood, to the existing factory wiring. From what I understand, it changes the injector pressure, the injector pulse width, the pulse time (allows more fuel into cylinder) and also bumps the timing.(i think). I do know I've seen a nearly stock PowerStroke w/ one installed, and the difference was like night and day. on the 6th setting, it will literally melt the tires...maybe visit www.banksperformance.com (http://www.banksperformance.com) or e

you can get a lot of horsepower and torque out of stock diesels now adays just by adding a performance chip, definately somthing to consider
