    Time to make some engine mods to the '06' 6 liter. Just wanted to know what everyone else was running on their trucks. What works and what doesn't. Would like to get up around 400hp. Any info would be great.

    Ok, this is pretty easy.

    HEADSTUDS!!!!!

    Must have those. Next up, an SCT tuner, some gauges, EGR delete, and you should be in good shape.
    An intercooler upgrade will help the turbo feed the motor cooler air. Also, there are upgrades available for the turbo, but I think you will be ok with what we have listed above, and should put you close to 350-400hp area, without having issues.

    Its a long drawn out process. And I HIGHLY recommend replacing the head gaskets.
