Thought you said you only bought the 1 dash piece looked at that link the carbon fiber piece just thought that was a little steep but then again the whole 3m dash kit is like 450 so i guess thats a good price.

Ha! Got ya. I looked around for just the center bezel and couldn't find it. So I went with that one. Like you said though, considering the dash kit is that expensive...it wasn't too bad.

With all the exhaust work, did you feel a notable increase in power?

Indeed I did. Especially after I installed the headers, the truck seemed to run easier, going into eco mode more often and staying in it longer where usually it would kick off. I can gain speed in eco mode lol. Those stock manifolds and Y-pipe are ridiculous!

Excellent! I'd really like to have some additional power. While the truck hauls ass, it doesn't seem like it has the 'raw power' that I would associate with having over 390HP.

That, and I gotta make sure I spank my buddies Raptor (2012 6.2L)

Yeah, it really is a shame how they choke these engines down so much from the factory. I'd recommend going dual exhaust, not necessarily a 2 muffler system (which I've read is a pain to do on these trucks), but a DI/DO straight through muffler. I'd recommend the Borla...great deep, mellow sound and not like everyone elses on the street. The headers are great too! Take on the Raptor man!

I hear you there. I think it may have something to do with the Mercedes transmission they paired it with. I think that also may be why they limit these trucks at 105mph. The tranny can't sustain the power output from the monster engine. Just a thought.
