Twin Turbo Diesel Power episode

I really enjoyed the Twin Turbo Diesel Power episode even though I donít own a diesel & never have. I thought the guy from BD Diesel was very informative & gave a lot of details. Too bad Dave had to cut him short so that Sam & Dave M. could push some products.

Iíve seen a few diesel episodes on Trucks where they had the guys from WyoTech talking about the diesel but they didnít even come close to the TTGís episode. Good job! Hope to see more episodes on the diesels.

In a few more weeks we have another show from there. It was just way too much for one show.

Vancouver in both, WA and BC. Both the same neck of the woods; long trip either one. Then there's Denmark in SC, but that's another story.

Enough Diesel Power - How about More MPG?

I have a 2004 duramax. From the factory it supplies all of the power I need. What are some inexpensive things that can be done to increase fuel economy?

Welcome to the Forum.

It was either on this show or a "Trucks" show that also showed the power module, that with the lower hp increase setting, it also increased fuel milage at the same time. Of course as you push the engine for the higher hp figures, the mileage suffers alittle.
