Heck yeah dude!! That's the new motto getting engraved on a sign going into the garage!!

My evil plan has officially taken root:
Turn the wife into a gearhead: in process
Have her addicted to modding: in process-i currently have two texts with YouTube videos of charger muffler delete systems that she found on her own *evil snicker*

All of this so that I can go... "So babe, I doing an exhaust, a lift, tires and interior mods" without fear of being divorced.... So the journey begins....

Picked my baby up from the dealer today. I had the famous exhaust manifold issue. Dealership replaced both sides under the powertrain warranty @54k miles, no questions asked. They put me in a dodge charger rallyE and now the Mrs (dear sweet baby jesus) wants to go MOPAR!!!! I have to admit the charger was a super super fun ride!

Hey. What symptoms did you have ? I noticed the last couple drives my trucks smells like exhaust fumes. I wonder if that’s what it is or just because I’m driving with windows down more.....

I agree about the mustang Dyno. Everyone talks about the difference. I'm happy. Should have aired down a bit. These G2's on the back are the worst A/ T tire I've ever had. They don't stick to anything but hot tar. Will find out what the other changes make for power in the fall. They invited me to Dyno day in October.

Wow were the G2 bald? Make sure you post the results from your next dyno day.

My symptoms.... Well lemme start here.... If you haven't already done so, do not and I repeat DO NOT research the issue on youtube lol lol (that was my downfall). In all seriousness though, it started with lack of power (I always drive with MDS off), then I noticed a major drop in MPG. Lastly there was a very loud tick that started on cold starts only, then migrated to any start. The "tick" resembled a pulley noise. I did not experience any burning smells of any kind. I hope this helps.....

I got it lol.

Well, funny enough I have a tick sometimes on cold starts. No loss of power that I can feel yet. Just an over powering exhaust smell. Comes and goes quick. I won’t YouTube it lol

Got my Edge 3k stall converter and ATI damper/underdrive pulley installed (finally) yesterday at my buddy's shop.

All I have to say is holy ****. My heavy Laramie Crew Cab is full bolt on sans gears at this point...running the stock 3.55s so not awful.

This thing is downright nasty and I love it. And for anyone wondering....no problem roasting the 35x12.50s. I'll get a vid when it's safe....lol
