    The manual tranny pulls speed from the tcase and the wheel sensors are for the abs and VCS if you have it. The auto tranny pulls speed from the wheel sensors.

    Everything seems to work just fine with the snorkel, I switched to the ram intake and took off the pre-filter.

    was wondering about the pre-filter and if that would still be possible...wonder if the 10" would still allow enough flow not to restrict the SC

    Did you have to modify anything with the snorkel to get it to work with the S/C? Brant's snorkel can't handle the airflow required for his TRD S/C...

    I would like to run the pre-filter and plan to try it after I fix mine, although I bet the 10" works better=more air more better.

    No mods on the snorkel, talked to Brant about his and what was going on with it and looked at mine to see if the airbox was flexing and it wasn't. I'm sure it would run better opened up but it runs just fine as it is.

    The 4 bangers air box is a pretty straight shot where it attaches you can see a point that the airbox comes to headed towards the passenger fender, I'm still using the stock boot for the airbox/snorkel connection.

    Got fuel today, 18.5 mpg average 50/50 mix highway and running around town. Went out this evening after work and took a drive up a rocky little canyon used the crawlbox and messed around on some rocks for the first time with the S/C. It definitely has more power now, We plan to wheel Boulder City this Sunday so it was good to check it out before then.

    The weather ended up being rain/snow on Sunday so no Boulder City trip might try for this Sunday. I did go out and mess around in one of the canyons near the house this afternoon it was some weird rain, sleet, snow and chunky mud that was a little slick.

    Hey nOrth, are you still using the wheel spacers and if so any issues ever? Also, how many miles do you have on the truck now?

    Thanks, that's just 10 minutes from the house. I drove 30 minutes this afternoon and went up to Boulder City to see if it's good to go up there this weekend photos shortly and maybe some video.

    I'm still running the spidertrax spacer on the front wheels, I re-torque them every 5k when I rotate the tires. The truck has 115K on it and runs like a champ.

    Looks like fun man! Would be awesome to join you! Wish you closer. Might be a little too short of notice to travel that far especially since I have no idea where boulder city is. Haha
