Sounds great guys, thanks for the input. I am not opposed to straight-piping the truck if I get the chip and the temps seem to run a little hotter than I'd like. I just don't want to try to bounce a $300+ exhaust system off the wife at the same time I am trying to convince her to let me spend the money on a chip - I don't think it would go very well. Nelstone, I am surprised to hear that you could get over 1250 degrees with a stock truck. I can just about hit it with mine when I'm towing my 5th wheel in the mountains, but I have to be really pushing it up a hill.
That FU setup does sound pretty nice, but I think I will be fine with the Phoenix. I just want to make sure I get the tunes that would be most useful for me. I am thinking of adding the 65tow or 80tow for when I tow my little 30 hp Kubota around, that setup with trailer and all is probably about 5000lbs.
Thanks again for the help guys.
