also, if you use a KN filter on your diesel, you are asking for problems.

Bah, more bullshit. I've seen literally thousands of diesels running K&N filters. Tell your dad to stop feeding you that bullshit. :P

I know, more air& more dirt= more horse power.

they work fine on the street but they are not recomended for offroad if you plan on keeping it for a long time. My turbo gets dirty with a k&n and stays clean with the stocker but you give up about 30 horse on a 6.0l :P
