what to do

[badfish888]

I'm about to have 3 to 5 k to spend in the very near future. I've talked to moes about converters and friends about headers. Here's m y issue. I don't wana do anything to my trucks computer. My thoughts so far is the set of american racing headers with cats. A mopar intake. Have my magnaflow 14inch and y pipe installed.. and possibly some new rubber and leveling kit. And a 2600 converter Its a 2012 4 door express....... first off. What do u think bout the choices. Second. Am I actually hurting my truck by not tuning it........won't the computer learn the new systems. I'm tryn to figure this out before I drop 5 k on parts. And ruin somthin..........thanx in advance

Well if you have a 2012 theres currently no tuner available. I think the mods you listed will do great. In the future when the tuner comes out, you will just be able to get more from those mods.

I would go with at least a 2800 stall TC though. They are the most common.

im just trying to figure out if all the mods and no tuning will actually hurt the truck. would such a free flowing system cause the truck to lean out, or will the truck compensate for this using its factory computer

Matt has been making very good numbers with his ported TB's and didnt see that in your list.

I read somewhere that the computer can adjust + or - 20% fuel. I dont think you run the risk of running too lean with those bolt on's.

But then again im no expert
