pretty sure i know the answer to this but i figure id ask anyway. my truck is a 06 5.9 2500 megacab on 37" tires with 4.56 gears and 50hp injectors from flux and a firepunk comp 1 trans and byond that its pretty much stock. i have been going to w.v. , kentucky and tennessee from pa a couple times a year towing a 20ft enclosed trailer with 1 sxs in it but will be increasing that to a 30ft enclosed trailer with 2 sxs`s in it. the hills on the highway are taking its toll on the truck as it seems to really slow the truck down and increase egts a good bit. i know a add a turbo kit would be ideal but can a 2nd gen swap do it just as well or is there no comparision between pulling what i will be pulling between compounds vs a 2nd gen swap? for the add a turbo kit i was looking at power driven diesel and pusher kits. i havent looked to much into the 2nd gen swaps. i dont have a set hp in mind that i have to have i just want a good reliable driver that can pull my trailer with a care in the world but still get a little rowdy when i want it to. i know i will need other supporting mods like valve train , studs and better fueling. does anyone have feedback between power driven diesel or pusher?
