Thanks for the suggestions. I am impressed with how it rides and how quiet it is. I've driven a few older trucks and they sounded like jet airplanes. This urea crap is a pita.

We can keep looking/sounding bone stock if that's your thing. My F250 is set up stealth like that

Get rid of all of the EGR and exhaust trash, and add a CAI and a tune. Like everyone else said, lol.
Gauges are good if you haul stuff too (assuming this, since you bought a dually).Originally posted by BuzzoSome dudes jump out of airplanes, I fuck hookers without condoms.

Nice choice! I'm on my 2nd 6.4 and I have loved both of them. Going to put about another 100k on my 09 then I'll be in a 6.7 too. Heard nothing but good stuff about them.
Just change the oil, FFs and coolant on a good schedule and I'm sure you'll be golden.
And some deletes of unnecessary crap never hurt either!!

Sounds like the 15s will have some pretty good upgrades.
Article from Auto Guide:
"The second-generation Power Stroke 6.7L continues to use the same reverse-flow layout, but adds larger GT37 turbochargers to deliver increased airflow. With no specifics to share yet, Ford says the new engine will produce more power than the current trucks, which are rated at 400 hp and 800 lb-ft of torque.
The new turbos have larger 88-mm compressor wheels, with a larger turbine size (up from 64 mm to 72.5 mm). The system has also been simplified, dropping the wastegate and wastegate controls because the turbo now operates at lower peak pressures.
Fuel system improvements are also a part of the package, though Ford promises the new engine will deliver fuel economy to match its current best-in-class rating.
“We’ve dramatically improved performance while reducing overall engine complexity,” says David Ives, Power Stroke technical specialist.
Other upgrades include a re-engineered six-speed transmission to deal with the increased power output as well as improved engine exhaust braking."
