    6.5 td

    Does anyone ever do anything with these, or are they better off left stock?
    Just curious.

    Check on dieselplace.com there is a small following there. You can get a tune, bigger turbos, down pipes, lower the compression and crank up the boost... You put a ton into them and don't get a whole lot back though when you compare it to a dmax

    You can do the usual intake, exhaust, ect. the biggest ehaust restriction is the cross over pipe and DP, the 6.5s are hard to make perform.... you can do a resistor on the maf i beleive, and get the ECU reprogrammed, but you still dont gain much.

    I much prefer the guy on dp who swaps dmaxes into anything he can. he swapped a dmax into his wife's escalade. that would be my dream truck right there.
