My 2012 R/T with a few mods....build log...whatever...

[09SMOKINHEMI]

what do your Spohn Performance Adjustable panhard bars do?

 

[UNBROKEN]

OK....did some modding today and picked up a few new toys.
First....gotta be able to tune it sooner or later...so I grabbed a Diablosport Trinity.

I like to know what's going on instead of guessing so I grabbed a few Auto Meter Sport CompII gauges...they have warning function, playback and data logging capability plus a pillar pod to stick em in. Vacuum/Boost, Wideband AF and fuel pressure.

And on to the Spohn bars. My biggest pet peeve with a lowered 4th Gen is the offset rear wheels.

I started talking to them about adjustable bars at about the same time they were thinking the same thing. Worked out great.
Here's a lower compared to stock.

And an upper.

Here's both bars installed.

And their adjustable panhard bar that I already had.

I added 3/4" to the length of the bars and dialed in 1.5* negative pinion angle to plant the tires a bit better....and now have centered rear wheels.

The build just keeps getting better and better.

Cosmic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

where did you get that pod and gauges?

 

[UNBROKEN]

I order the majority of my stuff through Performance Truck Products in Tomball, Tx.
That's where those parts came from.

 

[UNBROKEN]

Got a little update from my buddy Dan at DC Customs.
It's pretty self explanatory....

 

[Graygoose]

cool...install the Trinity yet? Like to know if you feel it was worth the $600

Waiting on a tune like everyone else....trying to get a response from Arrington about a custom tune....I'm gonna call them tomorrow about it.

As others have said.....'you finally made your way over here'
Yea, the ads stink over on the other side

Great build so far

see the post on that other dodge site, Arrington told a guy you send them your PCM, they can add like 50HP, but then they tell Dodge your VIN and you loose all warranty.

Unbroken, good to see you on this forum, and awesome build by the way. What's the deal with the V6 fan mod?

See my post in 4th Gen engine...I talked to Arrington today.

I could care less about warranty....the heads, cam and blower would kill it anyway.


As far as the V6 fan, It's an OEM Dodge fan and it's a straight plug and play swap. I added a 180* t-stat at the same time and it all works perfectly.

Yea, not much other than longblock on yours is stock already....the Arrington looks to add like 50hp on NA....I'd love to boost.

Was the clutch fan hard to get off? I haven't done mine just because I feel like I don't have the tools to finish it...

I did mine when it was new so that probably helped...but one quick shot with an air chisel at it popped loose...I spun it off by hand after that. Older trucks probably aren't quite as easy.
I'd run by a shop somewhere that has the big spanner wrenches on hand and throw a tech a 20 or something to pop it off for you. Drive it home and finish the swap after that.

What did this stock V6 efan run you?
Im currently looking for one and plug and play sounds much better to me

 

[UNBROKEN]

I think they're like 250ish at the dealer....not much more if any.

hmmmm.....$125 (Amazon) or $250 (Dealer)

Can anyone confirm if modding is required for the non OE efan? If so, I may just go with the dealer one for the simple reason of not having time to install my own stuff....haha

Thanks unbroken
