Dang man! Glad everyone is okay but what a bummer about the truck. Have you had a chance to look where the oil might be coming from?

I'll let y'all know Sunday! Sick of thinking and talking and speculating.
View attachment 468308My truck feels, drive, sound's, skats like a RamJet I like it a lot that's why I call it RamJet.
That's why you should look around and spend some money on a good one I hear the BBB 90mm is a good quality one.$165 for an ebay "oversized" TB... Good luck man.
Most of those, "ported" TBs out there are not true bore. And I wouldn't trust some ebay store with my electronically controlled throttle body. Stick with the known brands out there, or go with a hellcat Tb and adapter plate if you want a bigger TB.
I second this. Mine has no issues roasting the tires with mine turned up. I can go outside and take pics of the burnout I did. lolFor me I will never drive my truck with out my PC, why???? because of how much more fun and peppy it makes the truck respond. It has no effect at WOT. This is for everyday driving, it removes the need to put your foot in the mudhole to get your truck moving. I find it the most fun in the city or for quick responses to pass on the interstate. WAyyyyyyy less pedal input is required and just makes an overall more fun truck to drive.
It is all grins. I am sure some have bought one and said no, not for me.
Same.Appreciate your findings with "your" test and "your" truck but my test of me and my truck has not and will not change. No science, physics. geometry, algebra or anything else you want to throw in there doesn't change what I feel with mine. Sorry you wasted "your" time and "your" money! Still happy with mine!
Oh yes it does. Turn a corner and punch it and it gets squarely. Loads of fun and makes that bad MPG worth it. Smiles per gallon for sure.Same.
And the highest setting for my truck does make it undriveable. Instant tire spin.
I think you just like to argue!LOL... So much bologna in this thread. Take those PCs off your truck and tell me it's impossible to recreate the same effect just by pressing the pedal more or less. I believe in research, and data, and science. The truth is out there if anyone cares to find it. Otherwise, feel free to spend $279 on some 'feelings'. LOL
IDK how many times we have to explain it to you, we notice a difference.LOL... So much bologna in this thread.

7.) Purchasing a Pedal Commander (or any other brand throttle response controller) is a quick way to needlessly spend your money.
Depends
If you hate the sensitivity (or lack there of) of your trucks pedal, this thing might be for you.

God the Pacifica is awful. We have one and it needs one bad. I agree I think he likes to argue through his brain that obviously seems to work differently. I have the 9 drive. I’m in full race mode all the time. My truck became a totally different monster. 5 kids and a mortgage doesn’t allow for big expense mods. My truck will now roast the tires with traction control on and is about 3x as responsive as tow haul mode and in manual 4. It does make a difference and I’m sorry you and your truck don’t get the same responses as almost all of us. I respect your research as I know I should probably do. It’s just if I am going to get my average 15-16 mpg I better be feeling all of that Hemi. I do now with my throttle controller. I’ll test me eco on my next road trip and see if I can get better the 20 mpg. Getting back to your pushing of the throttle comment. So where I would have to be 1/2-3/4 pedal it’s now barely 1/4. That’s what it improves IMO. I need to pass it’s a very light push 1/4 I’m not down into 4th 6spd truck. Mine loves it. MPG hasn’t changed at all. They work and work well IMO and I am usually like you not impressed with little things like this.I view it like this, the throttle is delayed by design, to help mpg and be gentler on the drivetrain for the most part , ie. torque control.
If you could get rid of the fly by wire and go to a throttle cable, most owners would be thrilled by that - as you could open the throttle as fast as you want.
Imagine 100% throttle in a split second with the hemi with a cable throttle.
On my Pacifica, I can slam the pedal as fast as possible and that darn van will sit there and ask "Are you sure you want WOT" at least half a dozen times before it even thinks about moving. If I want to go wot and get around someone, I need to smash the pedal 3-5 seconds early to get it to go when I want it to.
My Ram isn't nearly as bad, but I would wager quite a bit of money that I would enjoy a cable throttle much more than the fly by wire - and it isn't for hard throttle use, but rather for feathering the throttle when I need vs. lag, kickdown, go with the fly by wire.
None of us were claiming that it made our trucks faster though or if someone did, I didn't agree with them. We were only saying that the highest setting was way too touchy and that it made the truck feel better to drive when you found a setting that you liked.The only way to prove or disprove whether something makes a vehicle faster or not, is to take the vehicle & the go faster part to a race track
Make runs with & without the part, 4 runs, 2 with & 2 without the part
Preferably with 2 different drivers
