In a similar situation, I have a 2018 3500 I want to build out a little bit. Gotta lose weight first (probably in somebodys garage) then I want to throw a fleece hd head on, arp stubs, push tubes, fuel lines, cheetah turbo or 2nd gen swap not sure yet, banks intercooler, monster ram, cold air intake, etc etc. Not going to be cheap but one or a couple things at a time. starting with jenny craig and the monster ram intake first priority. I'd let firepunk work on my truck any time, love them guys. Thx for the upload, great video.
You made the right decision not keeping the original turbo; taking the core credit. My 2017 Ram Cummins turbo actuator failed at 72,000 miles and I’ve been driving with the exhaust break on (towing) since the day I bought the truck.
I have a 3500 2015 wuth a g56 dually with 280,000 on it. I pull a 35' gooseneck and move equipment like backhoes, rollers and farm equipment. And it still all factory. Only problem is oil changes every 3000. 2 set of pads no rotors. My 05 with the 5.9 has around 400,000 and it for backup, which I haven't used yet.
