Theres lots of choices but be aware you chip or retune it and Dodge wont warranty it. Also dont even consider chipping a TV without a full set of gauges. The EGT's on the new CTD run pretty high stock. You'll find out you dont need it chipped to tow well anyway.

I have 325/70-17s Toyo Open Country ATs on mine. I also added King shocks, CSS coilsprings and Deaver leafsprings and it now rides better, handles better, tows better and is an animal running fast in the desert!

Thanks for the input!
I wanted a set of gauges and shopped around quite a bit. I ended up buying a Juice/Edge/Attitude module to monitor everything but the tranny temp. My local Dodge dealer recommended it and said that they have installed many before. I purchased a separate pillar mount tranny gauge. I LOVE THE JUICE!! It monitors (with the exception of tranny temp) everything! EGT, engine temp, boost, rpm, engine load, air box temp, torque converter lock, slip, and it will display actual speed based on tire size!. Not to mention that at the push of a button, you can bump the power up to amazing levels. It was expensive, but I do use it all the time. It is nice to have the ability to monitor everything. If I were to buy everything separate, it would have been a lot more expensive. Since you need to have gauges if you are going to boost the power/performance, the Juice module is the answer in my opinion.

You drive a Cummins, cumming is something you do at home.
