I have noticed that my 08 Ram with the 4.7 is pretty sluggish pulling a trailer. I’m talking it struggles to pull a boat back up the boat ramp (18 ft boat). Seems to take a lot of gas pedal work to get it up. Maybe this is normal, but I’m just not happy with the performance of this engine.
Is a cold air intake worthwhile on these engines? I thought I read somewhere that the stock air box is fairly good. Anything else I can do? I have heard tuners but I had one for this truck at one point and all the modes warned against towing. Truck got all new spark plugs last summer (all 16) using oem plugs. Thanks in advance.
