    Can you turn up a DD16 from 560 Hp to 600 HP?

    Yes, any Detroit dealer can. Make sure that you ask them about the torque rating. They can do 600 HP at 1850 ft/lbs or 2050 ft/bs. They won't set it any higher than the driveline rating.

    Probably the same as any other hook up to the ECM. Probably an hour of shop time.
