How much power?

Howdy folks...
I am a long-time browser of this forum and now I finally got my own so I reged

DavidTD, if you read this...I am Rick's friend who has been searching for a while....FOUND ONE!!

My question is this....the truck already had the mods listed below when I bought it. I want to take the muffler and resonator off, but am afraid of overpowering my stock TC. My performance guy (Jeff from Garmon Diesel) said my current level is near what it will hold. So how much power would I have with just a 3-inch pipe in place of the muffler? Will I still be alright??

Thanks...
Will
