I had the duramax in a 3/4 and had a chip and exhaust sytem on it. Wasnt a bad set up but I got a new camper and the truck wasnt quite enough to handle the weight.Bought the dodge 1 ton and changed the exhaust and had to sign a wavier for it saying I was using it for off road racing. I am getting 21 mpg now compared to 15.3 before I changed it. Dont need no chip on this one
