[QUOTE="Wildman1, post: 1066776, member: 16282"] Okay here is what I got and what I hope to achive. 2002 with an auto tranny. Mods so far are, Edge Juice w/Attitude, Cold Air intake, BD exhaust manifold, 5" exhaut, and some Stage 2 Jammer injectors on the way. I am installing a gooseneck hitch and will be towing a trailer with 12,000-13,000 lbs total weight. So what I need to know is this?? I am not trying to be the fastest or beat anyone at a Dyno comp. I would like to build a truck that has a little more power but it need to be relaible and better MPG would be AWESOME!! Not to start a big debate but what do I need to do to my tranny? Is it just better to get a rebuilt unit, a built unit from someone, or can I beef up mine to handle the power/load?? I also would like to upgrade the turbo but do not want to hurt the towing ability. And last I would like to install a exhaust brake. Now if I go to an aftermarket turbo what brakes cn I use? Also with my larger exhaust is this an issue? Thanks [/QUOTE]
