    Trany etiquette

    So guys please forgive me if this is a stupid post but since our tranys are so weak I figured it would be helpful to have a Do's and Don'ts for our trans. For example, I heard no WOT above 40 mph and to shift to 3 for 0-60 runs. If you have any tips on how to improve the performance or help the...

    Nitro 420

    * Nitto (phone auto corrected me) I'm looking at new tires for my lowered quad cab. I want to put them on my 20x9 chrome class. I can't decide between a 285/40-20 or 285/50-20. I'm leaning towards the 285/40 they measure at 29" in diameter. Does anyone think they might be to small?

    E fan setting

    So I just installed my TYC e fan, install was super easy. I have a hemifever tune and in the tune the fan setting is already set at 193.99. Just now I noticed it came on around 195 so its coming on almost perfect, I waited to see when it would turn off and it got down to 185 and just stayed on...

    Adding only LSD

    I have seen a lot of post about swapping gears and LSD. All had great info but it leaves me with unanswered question about what I want to do. So here's my question; What would it take for a 2012 with 3.92 to swap just the open diff to and lsd and keep the factory gears? Thanks... Sent from my...

    Monitoring questions

    Guys, I've just found out that the ST knock sensor on my tuner or my truck isn't very accurate. Also, I've read that hard shifts or the vibration of the dip stick can give you a false knock reading. My questions are, is there a way to "reset" the sensor to make it more accurate? Is there another...

    Exhaust leak/ knock

    I'm running the 89 HF tune with 91 octane gas. With normal driving I get at least 5* of knock. I'm starting to hear what sounds like an exhaust leak during acceleration so I'm thinking that's what is causing my Trinity to pick up knock. I'm sending HF a log soon. Does anyone think the leak is...

    Brownish "sludge" in my radiator cap

    What's up guys, So like the tittle says, while admiring my ride I noticed a brown sludge around my radiator cap and around the fill neck. After research I've come to find out that it's more then likely rust. That's crazy to me though because I have a 2012 so it's pretty new. I did change to a...

    Drain plug

    After reading the never ending synthetic oil thread I took the advice given by a member and bought a magnetic gold plug. The magnet is really strong and the bolt was only $20 including shipping. Soon I'll be changing the oil and will be using redline ( thanks burla ) and changing the drain plug out.

    E85

    So tonight I'm surfing YouTube like most nights and like most nights I'm watching videos of modified cars. I have noticed that most of these cars are using E85 fuel. Do you get more power from using E85? Less knock? If so, can our Rams be tuned to run E85? TIA, for helping me in my quest for...

    New power mod

    I'm pretty sure this is the right section for this. I just installed what could be the best power mod for our trucks. Literally takes seconds to install. Just one push of this button changes the whole attitude of my truck. It needs to come with a warning label. If any site vendor wants to start...

    Diablosports latest update

    About a week ago I updated my trinity and it started freezing. At first I could have it plugged in and on my gauge page for about 20 min before it started to freeze, then it started to happen earlier. I called Diablos customer service line and "they" said people were having the same issue I was...

    Can't leave well enough alone LOL

    So I had Monday off and got bored, never a good thing. I thought to myself " I bet I can really improve my gauge pillar if I put 3m double sided tape on it. Everything went good until I tightened the screw that holds it. I screwed it to tight and cracked the plastic. It's been bugging the sh!t...

    Custom Tune

    Hey guys, I might be asking a dumb question here but I'm clueless when it comes to this. What exactly do I need to do to get a custom tune? I know I need to send them the tune I'm running now. Do I use a sd card or just plug the trinity to my computer? Do I put the truck tune back to stock...

    Open diff question

    Hey fellows, So my 2012 Ram Express has the 3.92 rear end but unfortunately has an open diff. I've been wanting to change to an lsd, but from what I understand it can be expensive. From what I know, with an open diff once you start to loose traction and spin a tire the computer cuts power and...
