i need more power!!! >:)

[johnnyjb]

Not really.
But what other bolt on mods can I do easy for more power.
Still feel too sluggish on the gas pedal, yeah I know my trucks heavy as ****..

I have a CAI
FLowmaster 10 series
and im using SCT from hemifever 87 tune..
will switching to 91 tune make a huge difference.

I have no plenum leak and I just changed out my spark plugs and rad fluid.
I wouldn't mind being able to spin my tires by just slamming on my gas

91 tune will make a pretty decent difference.

headers,throttle body, and 4.56 gears would be a good upgrade. you prolly have 3.55 gears.

M1 manifold, nice gains. Loose a little down low but up top pulls strong. Or you can pick up a modded kegger with cut runners.

1.7 rockers, 52mm tb, and retune.

Cost wise throttle body than probably headers, Gears, Torque converter

if you are looking for tire shredding power i wouldnt suggest the m1 as it moves the power band up in the rpms.

 

[JStrag3]

If he geared it, it would be fine. Also why I mentioned a modded kegger if you dont want to go too extreme.

huges fi airgap intake.

or just bolt this on and burn away.lol

You really need some gears...none of the bolt on mods will really jump things up without them. Or a supercharger...BTW incremental mods will only give you incremental results. Real torque or horsepower costs.

I'd start with the 1.7 rockers and a 50 mm throttle body with the 91 tune.

Then start looking for a SS/T, tow package truck or Indy Ram with a 3:92 geared rear. Swap it in.

If you can't spin your tires with that, a 125 or 250 shot of Nitrous oughta get it.

After your tires are torn to shreds from driving over the shrapnel from the blown engine move up to a stroker or Cummins.

 

[JStrag3]

Either will cause some loss in low end. Personally I dont like hughes as a person from MANY stories I've heard. Regardless, if you chose not to mod the kegger and go aftermarket, gears and a tune will help with overall performance.

If you can't spin your tires with that, swap in a 360 or cummins.

I'd also agree with 3.92s.

so true. a heavy ram is way different to get moving than a light dakota. my buddies dak with less stuff is quicker than my truck.

I have the tow package on my truck
how do I find out what gears ive got. my build sheet doesn't say

you have heard? lol. i run it. nice intake.

Meaning him as a person. Some of his work isnt so great. I know a few guys who have ran both and went m1 every time. Have you ran an m1 before?

 

[talon6]

yep. nice. m1 for sure improvement over stock. the only thing i dont like about the airgap is the brackets are kinda cheesy, but they work, and havent had any issues with them. and he is a ass.

(edit)i borrowed the m1 off my buddy for a few to compare.

As long as it works lol. Yea I love the m1, and didn't notice too much of a low end loss but that was in a dak. Haha, yea I bought ported heads from him a few years back before I went on forums. Was a little upset after i heard about him. Truck pulled strong though.

 

[talon6]

it just seemed with the airgap i had more bottom end. i have 35/12.50 cepek crusher tires,quad cab,4x4,3.92's. so i need all the low i can get.

 

[talon6]

jstrag3.....pm at ya.
