If anyone has experience with any of this, I would appreciate some input.
PS
Truck is out of warranty so voiding warranty is not a concern.

I don't have any recommendations on tuners, just make sure you get one with a pyrometer so you can monitor EGT's. if the egr cooler goes, this will be a good indicator. Egr cooler is one if the biggest problems with new diesels, if it quits you are basically pumping super hot exhaust gas back through the engine and your coolant temp won't tell you about it.
An out if warranty diesel should get the DPF, egr and egr cooler deleted. This will help power AND MPG's alone, it's all emissions BS and is the week link...
Powerstrokehelp.com youtube videos are priceless, they don't have many for the 6.4, but the 6.0 videos the same story - watch them and save yourself a motor!
