I also have a CRD and love it. If I could have stuck with chevy and gotten a diesel that didn't have a 500ft-lb i would have. I am still getting the out of the box milage 22-23 mpg, considering Diesel is 10 to 20 cent cheaper per gallon than gas is (here in SC) that is really good.

Lookin up some info the "Cummins 600" name came about on January 1, 2004, with th mid-04' model. Inconel valves and high-cobalt content Stellite exhaust valve seats complemented revised ports with less swirl, a bigger turbo compressor wheel, and electronic wastegate control for the HY-35 turbo...

I put an Edge chip in my 99 2550 Ford with the 7.3 and if anything the mileage went down. For the most part I couldn't see a great power increase... setting 2... I had it removed before taking it to the Ford dealer for warranty work on the tranny ... I won't put it back on... It was nice however to see EGT's... etc.. Too bad Ford didn't put guages on the dern Ford. I guess they didn't trust us with too much information.
