    Would a 2008 QC stealthbox fit a 4th Gen?

    I had a 2008 QC with a box that fit on the passenger side storage spot in the back that fit a 10" sub. I sold my truck with the intent to get a newer truck one day, would that stealthbox fit in a 4th gen? It's an old Subthump box if anyone is familiar with those and I am really wondering if...

    Any NEGATIVES to installing a 180* tstat?

    Other than your heater not getting as hot, is there any disadvantage to this? I live in Tennessee so winter here is between 30-40 degrees mostly, so not too bad. Most other months are spring/summer like conditions.

    What does an 85mm TB do to improve responsiveness?

    I have done research on this and the consistent comment is that it improves responsiveness. Without getting too technical, can someone explain exactly what an aftermarket TB does to accomplish this? I don't like to buy mods if I can't understand how they work. Thanks

    Is a tuner a good mod with NO other supporting mods?

    I want to keep my truck virtually stock, but think a tuner can really help. Is this the case if the entire rest of the truck is stock?

    Is it worth it to get a cutout on a stock 5.7?

    I am a big fan of cutouts - cheap and loud, but my only concern is with the MDS. I know that without the MDS, it will sound awesome. Just wondering how it will sound with the MDS kicked on. I know you can disable this with a tuner but right now I don't have the money to get a nice tuner. Any...

    How does the V6 efan automatically kick on?

    I am just having trouble understanding how the V6 converted fan kicks on. If the stock Hemi truck has a clutch fan and an AC fan, wouldn't replacing the AC fan with the V6 fan only cause the new V6 fan to come on when the AC is on? I guess I don't know how the new electronics work when the...

    Bully Dog tuner any good?

    I like the idea of having it on a windshield-mount so I can monitor areas real-time. I also looked a little closer and didn't see if it was able to disable MDS, is it capable of doing this? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Honest answer - Is a CAI worth it for someone who doesn't "get on it?"

    I like getting the most out of my engine and have read that a CAI is a good mod. Problem is, I analyze things a lot and for my truck, I don't race it or romp on it to see how fast I can go. I want the most efficient, i.e. MPG increase, motor that I can possibly have. When I drive my truck I...

    5.7 Hemi soundclip with stock manifolds/Y and open cutout?

    I want to know what a cutout would sound like on a stock truck just before the muffler. I have no mods and only one I am planning is the e-fan one day and potentially a CAI (S&B). Does a sound clip exist of a stock Hemi with an open cutout? How do you guys think this would sound?

    Installing 6.5" speakers in 6x9 location - any good brackets?

    I like 6.5" components much more than 6x9 and wanted to know if there are any good mounting brackets as well as what the maximum top mount depth is. I have some Boston Acoustic Pro series component speakers and those magnets are HUGE and am worried they may not fit.

    Aftermarket tranny coolers that use OEM mounts or ready-made Ram kits?

    I am wanting to install an aftermarket tranny cooler in place of the stock one but do not want to do a lot of fabrication work, either something that bolts right up to the OEM mounts or something like a pre-made kit that mounts an aftermarket cooler in the stock location. Does any vendor make...

    Is it possible to get your truck tuned and NOT buy a Superchips/Diablo?

    I don't want to shell out the coin for a tuner as I am not a gearhead and am only really interested in getting it tuned once and being done with it. I have a 2002 Trans Am and I knew a guy who had a progam called HP Tuners and I paid him like $100 and he tuned my car on a dyno with his...

    Question about efans and A/C interaction

    I am going to be putting on the Flex-a-lite 183 kit soon and I was reading the instructions and it said to connect the AC positive wire to the controller. I got to thinking though, since these trucks has a seperate AC condenser efan already, do these fans even need to come on when the AC is...

    Should my AC condenser efan be running ALL the time?

    So I turned on my truck yesterday from sitting over night, AC off, and the efan starts running. Why would this be, is this how it is supposed to work? If not, do I just need to take it to a Dodge dealer and ask them to check it out??

    Where is the stock t-stat located on a 5.7 2008 Hemi

    Sorry if this is a stupid question, just wanted to know where it was located and if it was hard to get to to change. I am contemplating swapping it out with my efans when I do them. I have also seen that some t-stats need to have a hole drilled. I like the Jet 10183 (just because I have heard...
