Honestly, it was a little bit rough. Had to take a step-back once or twice to double check what to take off next.

But I think CF has a walk through.
Be sure to have a pan underneath for coolant.

So after having these mods on for about 2 weeks, the butt-dyno is telling me that there is a huge improvement.

Throttle response is as if i was back in my hemi. The truck jumps just with a little tap of the pedal. **** is nuts and took some getting use to. That EGR really restricted so much.

Well instead of the exhaust work, I grabbed some black laquer paint and did my front hubs.

Wow I should have done this earlier.

I took Agatha down the 1/8th mile, with a full tank of fuel too (36gallons), and she ran quite well!

I really hate when that happens. Like "I trust you, I have a pile of hard earned cash I am willing to exchange for your services" and they say "Meh, **** off"

Kind of, but he's doing all of this for only $300 bucks. Including welding. So if a job pops up that is going to actually make him profit, then I get pushed back. Sucks, but totally understandable and I really don't mind it.

Good to hear you are happy with the results.

I haven't tapped a hole in years. <That sounds bad.
The one I did for you led to 12 more at work the next day.:wtf2:

What's next? :superhack:

Well the parts didn't come in unfortunately.

But they'll be here Friday. The shop went ahead and put on the rt bumper to help with measurements ImageUploadedByTapatalk1403677649.529141.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1403677658.363022.jpg
