fuel plate mod
I am looking to grind my fuelplate down to a zero or flat and was wondering if this will affect the motor performance or cause excessive smoke. i drive a 97 ram 2500 12 valve. also if i do this and get an adjustible turbo conrtol elbow thing how would that affect it. Any advise is helpful.

super noob. welcome
yes it will smoke more yes it will be a factor in drivability, yes you will gain HP, it is called a boost elbow advise is go for it, you have to start somewhere. |
I would recommend that u get gauges first but that's just my opinion

+1 on gauges first.
That said, unless you've gone into the pump (rack plug, etc, which it doesn't sound like you have) and you intend to grind your plate flat (irreversible), my advice would be to slide it all the way forward and drive it for awhile. Then just take it out. If you don't like it, put it back in and do some research on what profile to grind that will give you the compromise between the two extremes you'll have now experienced. It's easy to take out, easy to put back. Not so easy to un-grind. |
i second this^ i just took my plate out and did a boost elbow when i first got my truck. also did the afc mods aswell. makes a world of difference but you gotta have those gauges installed or else you may just have a bad day.
