roundboy0: I have a couple quick questions for you. I was wonderin if you have had a recent dyno, or know what your 1/4 mile time is. I am wonderin cause i will soon be purchasing a Fastman TB, and have a cat-back system on right now, with a drop-in K&N. Have you noticed seat of the pants improvements on those mods? I too have the 4X4 cc w/3.92lds.

Thanks for any answers. by the way, nice truck.

So far, I'd have to say that the Fastman TB made the most noticeable improvement. I don't have any recent dyno or 1/4 mile results, but there is a good gain all accross the RPM range (most noticeably starting around 2500).

Looks like you're pretty much following the same route I did...open up the intake & exhaust. I added a set of JBA headers last weekend & noticed some more improvement in acceleration.

One thing I'd definately recommend is to relocat the IAT sensor...it won't give you any more power, but it keeps my truck feeling the same after warming up. It used to get noticeabley more sluggish after the engine got hot. Dunno why Dodge put the IAT where they did...emissions? Anyway, I put it in the intake tube on my CAI.

thanks for the info. Is that new cold air stage 3 intake that much better than the stage 2?

It should be better in the summer. It draws air from the passenger side air well like the stock air box. Stage II draws air from the engine compartment.

Additionally, it'll keep the filter cleaner. And it looks cool.

Passenger side air well? What the hell is that?

Brain fart.

I meant from the passenger side fender well.

yeah, i know what you meant. When you put that intake on, did it give a deeper sound to your truck? Sorry for all the questions, i am just interested.
