Plants good...then blows the tires off. Also adding Caltacs to the truck...hope it helps with that!

Caltracs will tame the axle and give you consistant launches.

Sweet!!!!!

Nice to spread out the mods to different areas of the truck. (AV/Suspension/Performance/Exterior/Interior etc etc)

Boost is not worth the "Headache's" .... just like getting BLOWN, it sucks with no tuning for the 03's. For what I had in the SuperChange setup (almost $9,000 dollars) I could of had a BAD ASS Stroker Motor!

Yes, and Dave Webber was the "Pioneer" of the Ported TB's. I went to other people and was told the Hemi TB's were at their limit. I meet Dave in 06 at a Mopar Event at Virginia Motorsport Park. We talked for some time and he asked if I would like to do some R&D work for him, I said sure! It was running and testing the MM ported TB's. After Dave did this everyone jump on the ported TB's but, I say his TB's our the best out there! I say this because of over 50 runs I did with his TB and others ( not going to say names) and I always pick up time with his TB.

That's a hell of a list! Wish I could gather all that up for mine.

TheSatinPumpkin · Apr 4, 2011

Cool. I got mine through his ebay store and came within a week. Good mod.
Also purchased his 5.7/6.1 Adapter plates w/ thermal gaskets and the quality is top notch.

What kind of time difference where you noticin in the TB's? My fastman helped with mid and part throttle respones but cant say it changes much if any in times.

truckin151 · Apr 4, 2011

My fastman dropped my times by about 0.05-0.1sec pre cam. It didnt want to play nice with the cam though so it pulled and the stocker was put back on.

Redtruck-VA · Apr 4, 2011

I didn't really feel a difference when I installed a Fastman TB. Workmanship looks good.

His TB's work great! Others I tested, all I got was a little better throttle response as (most at the time) just cut the front face of the TB's. Dave's TB's had a more snapper throttle response, I got 1 1/2 - 2 miles more per gallon of gas (open road), on hot runs I was picking up 0.80 - 1.00 and on cold runs 1.50 - 1.80 in the 1/4. Also looking at the time slips it was working all throw the RPM band. I did 20 runs one day, 10 with the stock and 10 with the MM...every two passes I would go in to pits and change out TB's. On every run...and they were hot runs the MM TB gave me 0.80 -1.00 more in the 1/4 mile.

Hmm, what cam are you running? I have installed MM TB's on stock cams, 260, 268, with no problems? Maybe it was a bad TB?

KGBIGCOUNTRY · Apr 4, 2011

Good info Dave, The fastman might have picked me up a .05 or so. I couldnt do like you though and compaire the stock to the ported back to back, my OEM took a crap bout 2 weeks after the first cam install and never had a before and after run time.
