So NWCD wont due any of my diesel upgrades unless I trailer the truck in and out and sign an off road use only waiver because of government telling us what we can and cant do with the vehicles we pay taxes on 3 or 4 times. Im not looking for a ton of extra power, bullet proof it and make it reliable with better mileage and a little better performance. Any ideas?
Practical accuracy and a packable rifle.

It sounds like you are asking for more than a few "upgrades" and instead wanting some things changed or removed that wouldn't be legal, correct?

I would guess any reputable shop would say the same thing, not worth their license and potential fines.  Also, if they would be willing to break the law for you for money, I would be suspect of their work, because I doubt there would be any warranty and probably a cash only deal...

Think about it, someone walks in and asks you to break the law for them, what would YOUR answer be? 

Probably have to do it yourself.

It's illegal to do what you want to do. That's why nobody wants to do it.  The shop would be at risk of huge fines at a minimum.

When you say EGR delete, exhaust mod's and bulletproof it, I'm curious what your budget is and what specifically you're looking for in terms of exhaust mods. I might be able to help you with some of it, providing it's legal. I won't even think about doing an EGR delete. It's a 6.4, right?

If it is a matter of signing the paper and throwing on a trailer...that seems reasonable  :dunno:

I understand legality issue and really dont like the fact to make my truck more reliable and better for using like its meant to be used its "illegal" because politicians say so. If i was more mechanically inclined towards diesels I would do it myself but I know my limits.

Jackelope, yes its a 6.4, my budget will be about 10 grand give or take. What I was looking to do was the deletes, a new full exhaust, intercooler, fuel system, and whatever the mechanic recommended for reliability and a little better mileage. I really appreciate the help.

No offense, but just because you don't think it's right or wrong doesn't change the fact that the shop is at risk of huge fines or more if they're caught doing any emissions modifications.

My truck came from Montana where the delete was done but I guess it's legal for a dealer in Washington to sell a vehicle like that. That being said maybe take it out of state and have it done. Check with Spartan Tuners also. From what I understand the tuner can really do a lot for a diesel, mileage and horsepower and they run about $1500.00.

And yet I've got liberal friends who constantly say, "where and when has the government taken our Freedoms?" :bash:

Not legal to sell either. Someone wasn't paying attention.

And the law is federal, not state.
