The 395. Drive that all the time on the way to Mammoth.

 

Does anyone in here have a barcelona red x-runner? I am wanting to buy some badges for my barcelona double cab, but need a vin for the dealership to be able to look up the part numbers

 

Worst case

Thanks for the links. Have already considered doing that but would rather not deal with them chipping over time.. might try my luck on xru

 

Reversed the FPR mod yesterday. Pulls much harder now. When I originally did the mod it was just starting to get hot out so I just attributed the laziness to the high DA. It’s time for a wide-band so I can actually see what’s going on.

I’m just looking at gains/$ to see if its actually worth it. That rabbit hole is a deep one.

8s are stupid rich at WOT. Get a 2.5 pulley and lean out

 

That’s the best sound I’ve heard come out of that 4.0.

 

You can easily have a great sounding exhaust... You just have to build it custom. More equal better sound

 

Anyone here do their own ratiotek install? My trans shop blew me off a 3rd time. Eff-em. I'm going to do it myself. Looking for tips.

 

I think everyone here that has the ratiotek kit installed it themselves. The write up on here covers everything you’ll need to know.

 

Yes it is! But it is a fun and rewarding hobby.

 

figured as such, been there myself and noticed the truck was sluggish and why I suggested u were too rich and killing hp.

 

Just got my urd y pipe installed. Sounds great. Running dtlt headers. Urd ypipe. Stock catback with the muffler replaced with a magnaflow and put a 23” cherrybomb before it. Sounds very throaty. Everyone said it would be raspy. It has a little rasp but more throaty then anything. I’ll try to take some videos tomorrow

 

2 mufflers or a muffler/resi combo is the key to killing rasp. Good yob

 

let me know when ya do, I can try and offer a hand pending timing

 

Thanks. They actually called back. Getting it in the morning. I'll take you up on the headers for sure. I'll make it worth you're time.

 

haha, the experience alone is worth my time. I am thinking about STARTING the homework on short tube headers so I can keep cats and all that legal stuff for emissions.

I still dont know what all works and what doesnt with the UCON and emissions testing and cats and sensors and long tube vs short

I want to ask on here...but I dont feel right flat out asking before I have done my own homework first. so by helping with your headers, whether they are LT or ST, I will see size differences and all that and help me get the exhaust piece where some of you guys have it. With the TCAI and S/C, I have good air going in....but I need that air to flow out as smooth to really keep the benefits of everything.

One day I'll be on your all's level haha

 

I should drive down south and get you to make my y pipe design in SS. @Roostfactor
