yea tunes are better than programers
but also get high flow cats unless u cut them off already
and depend on how much u willing to spend put a turbo on your rig
most(if not all) diesels have one and that helps get boost to your motor
also helps gas milage if you dont stomp on it
maybe even a quick shift kit or bigger rear end gears

got a friend with a 02 silverado on 20"s that has a 5.3, pacestter longtubes, off road y-pipe, Borla exhaust, k&n intake and a custom tune and he is blowin diesels off the road so I figure if he has what it takes then why can't you? granted you're a little heavier with 4wd but it should work
