I'm still on my first fill up since I installed the fan but so far if the computer is accurate and remains constant, I'm seeing about a 1-1.5 mpg increase with the efan. And although you can't feel it, removing the clutch fan generally frees up somewhere in the area of 5-10 hp/tq.

Well, got the magnaflow y-pipe and MBRP 5" black exhaust tips installed today. I had also finally swapped the tailgate badge for a 2011 Ram Head and plasti-dipped it a couple days ago.

Thanks guys

Everything is treating me great! Especially the y-pipe! I think the y-pipe really tied in all the other mods I've done so far as far as performance goes. The stock y-pipe is so restrictive that it really hinders the truck from performing at it's best.

Your truck is really coming along! Looks great and makes me miss having a bright red truck.

Well today I installed the 85mm throttle body from Moe's Performance and I'm liking it so far. I didn't take any pictures of it before installing it, I know...boo me, I was a little ratchet happy this morning. While I was at it, I removed the throttle body spacer as it's just dead weight and it feels slightly weird driving without it as I don't have a whistle anymore.

I'm still giving the computer time to learn the new throttle body so I haven't gone wot yet but I can tell a difference with just normal driving. The truck feels like it want's to pull harder and it's a little easier to get my eco light on and mds to kick in when it can.

Next thing on the list of things to do is to install my light bar and off road lights but the weather is too iffy and crazy for me to want to do it right now. It's hot as hell and pretty humid which isn't normal for vegas so maybe later today when it cools off or tomorrow is when I'll get around to it.

Started working on installing my light bar this evening and so far I'm half way done with the whole job. Tomorrow is going to be the fun part, get to mount the lights, run the wires, drill some wholes then ****....I'm one of the brightest Rams around.

The truck is coming along very nice. Looking forward to some pics with the new lights installed.
