Who all is into performance mods on their TV ?

Truck has plenty of power. Not going to do anything that might impact warranty on that expensive engine.

X2 I'm not one to spend 65k, start moding and risk voiding any warranty,lol

^That is pure awesomeness!

Agree. Just the right size.

I actually got grease in my front driveline U joint today! Had to remove it to do the job. Is that a performance mod????

My last truck needed suspension and wheel upgrades for the weight it was carrying but was never a slouch in performance and was left with stock engine and transmission even after the warranty was long gone. My current truck carries all the weight I can load and keeps any speed I ask of it, so it is mostly stock except for the bed, boxes, gooseneck and receiver (give me a break, it is a chassis cab).

After the warranty expires, I may consider modifications to increase durability/reliability/serviceability but see no current need to increase performance.

Oh and I forgot I added BD Diesel exhaust brake...

The KW mod comes with all of the above and up to 2050lbs-ft of torques...

HA, nice to hop in and drive these newer trucks! DuraFlaps, B&W, MS2's, Highway Products tool box and now a MaxBrake that's it.

That it is!
And I will be starting to mix the Metamucil in my morning Monster drink apparently too, cause if it had a new anything in the drive, it would stay stock for a while unless the emissions got overly effed up and made me throw them away one day!

As justification for this "leave it stock" pansy behaviour, the diesel pickup is now not the fastest rig in the stable, so I can go beat up on ricers with something else! Just can't smoke em out!

You're on the wrong site for that. Several of us but we're in the minority around here.
Too much geritol, not enough red bull!

LOL.

For me. Turned up pump a hair, performance exhaust, manual waste gate controller on my 93 diesel.

For my LBZ Duramax. Nothing, it has more than enough power right now. In fact I would like to detune it down to about 300 HP. But I drive it with pedal left so there's no real reason to do that.
