Almost decided on wmi with dash controls for fuel $ turbo boost,
Welcome Yorky,
I guess I don't know what that is. Can you post a link to it? Gaining power for a 6.5TD can be fun but you should really do in steps. The more you read here you'll find out the #1 thing to get first IMO would be a good exhaust and down pipe, aswell better air intake (K&N filter or alike). Next Gauges please don't do anything to the fuel or boost rates until you can watch them on the gauges (Exhaust Gas Temp & Boost). Learn from the others that added fuel or boost with NO GAUGES they have new motors or pistons. Check out the FAQ for more info. Also update your sig per the welome new forum member.

Probably because the stuff you are talking about is sold at a website with "bizh0sting" in its name. Not only do they not work, (especially the fuel control) but the owner of that site has a bad rep for being a cheat and liar.
Avoid at all costs!

Anything A1 or bizcrap is good to stay away from. Unless of course you are having a back yard BBQ, then A1 is a good thing;)
