  1. Thank you Cameron for your response. I'm curious to what you said about the jba not really being an upgrade from stock -- what it sounds like is I wasted money lol - do they not help?
  2. Thank you for your reply Nick. Eventually I will get a full tune from black bear - my concern was if I would need it right off or if I could give it some time as I'll have to same up some more $ lol - I would really like to open up the trucks potential without major engine mods - don't need to be changing cam or making it a race truck - I figured the exhaust @ a minimum would help some
  3. Hi guys Need some advice - Just ordered jba shorties with arp header bolts and oem exhaust gaskets along with a magnaflow cat back exhaust dual exit and have an afe cold air intake installed.  My question is will I need a tune after doing the exhaust installs? Truck is a daily driver -10 to 15 miles back and forth to work ( not even 30,000 on truck ) little to no towing involved . Bought it to plow with ( boss 8'2 as v-plow )
  4. Thank you for the reply. I wasn't sure If would need a tune . I was definitely going to go with black bear if needed after reading all the positive reviews about them
  5. Hi guys Need some advice on should I or shouldn't I tune. Just ordered jba shorties along with a magnaflow cat back exhaust dual exit and have an afe cold air intake installed.  My question is will I need a tune after doing the exhaust installs? I am ordering the are bolts for the headers as well as oem gaskets so I won't have a problem there. I don't do any towing to speak of - the reason I have the 2500 is mainly for plowing here in the northeast. It's a daily driver ( I don't even have 30 k on it as I only drive a total of 15 miles back and forth to work if that ) Mods are: Cognito ultimate leveling kit with front diff spacers. 285's on 18" wheels. Afe cold air intake About to put jba shorties and magnaflow cat back exhaust on. If needed ( depending on overall response ) will go with a black bear tune. Thanks in advance to all who respond with the help. Lil johnnie
  6. Regular maintenance - oil changes and properly greased front end - no complaints on my part
  7. I've owned two 2500's with the 6.0 starting back in 06 - ran my first one for 10 years before rusting to the point of trading in for a 16 - never had any issues other than normal wear items ( ball joints ) and I think that's only because I have had plows on both trucks
