Wait till he finds out how much it is to Build an Allison tranny. 8,000.00 for the top of the line.
Just a word from someone who went through the Diesel Power Craze, Yes a 1,000 dollar chip and programmer have the ability to get u up to 220 extra hp. After that you will have to fork over some serious dough to correct all the issues you will run into.
Just my two cents, I left an 05 Cummins Pushin about 475 hp and 1150f/lbs of torque to get my gas gussler, but Good luck with it.
My Ride: 2006 Chevy Vortec Max, LQ9, 4X4, no cats, 50 Series Flowmaster in factory pipe, 20"s, C.A.I., Custom tune by Dustin at TRT Performance
Diesels are fun, I have a high 12 sec. D-max, The tranny is only 5k, and will hold anything Ive thrown at it. And the 350 hp PPE tuner is the way to go. Good luck man,

The best advice I have ever heard:... Only take B( . Y . )ST advice from someone that is CURRENTLY running a turbo setup close to, or bigger than what you want......
to bad i didnt know this a few months ago when i bought my 03, as i would have snatched it up in a heartbeat.
Good luck with the sale.
im staying gas powered for a while but cant blame u for going diesel. the nnbs trucks are sick with the diesels. ill prob wait for the 6 speed auto and 6.2 to hit the chevys before i buy a new truck. leaning towards tbss tho...
dude go with the duramax! jus a couple bolt ons and your talkin HUGE power!
