DIY
 

hew a friend of mine just picked up a lightly used 2006 dodge 2500 ( with a cummins of course)....since he spent a lot on the truck his budget is kind toast but he still wants to play around a little bit. So my question is what are some cheap "diy" mods i can do to his truck on the cheap like 200 or less.....i already custom made him a new exhaust using the stock tubing: i punched out the cat and did a muffler delete. any advice is welcome.

remove silencer ring

Remove the baffles from the torque tube.

since you did tha already
i would look into an edge ez, quadzilla mileage module, there are a couple more companies selling pressure boxex
just search around for a used pressure boxes they are cheap and easy on the wallet
o you could get a big airfilter from napa

ok tell me more about the silencer ring and the torque tube baffles??? Wel alreadys did the big friggin air fliter i forgot to mention it.

All the fins do is reduce turbo whine. http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/b...TB06/005-2.jpg

nice thanks. hey i was thinking his truck is throwing codes because of the mass air flow thing i took off. i was thinking of getting a bhaf and tapping into the rubber intake elbow and screwing in the mass airflow thing.... will that work

i dont think so, the MAF sensoe is position in the right spot, if could alter the reading is its not where is supposed to be

any other ideas on how to mount the bhaf?? the mass air flow sensor is in a wierd spot. any one else done it or have pics.

These trucks don't have MAF sensors. I think your talking about the IAT (Intake Air Temperature) sensor. You can install a BHAF on these trucks. You have to get creative on re-mounting the IAT sensor. I've seen it done with plastic PCV pipe or aluminum tubing.

I made my own torque tube with a 5.5in piece of aluminum pipe.

hey thanks and nice signature. I ship out in 25 days im gonna be a CM in the seabees

Sweet! That's what I was, a CM. Were are ya headed?

boot is at great lakes, a-school is in california, and infantry training is in mississippi then i don't know where. so tell me what to expect from day to day life on base?

That's odd you aren't doing all your training in Gulfport @ the Seabee base?

From what I remember: Boot is a big head F*$%, so try and keep it together. Don't let them get inside your head. Once they do, your screwed! I did my boot in Great Mistakes as well. You usually start the day with breakfast, then PT (Physical Training), then class, then lunch, then more class and marching, then dinner, then drill, clean the barracks, lights out. Your 1st couple of days there, don't expect to get more then 2 hrs of sleep, total. Try and get into a 'Color' company. These are the guys that carry the flags, band, choir and drill teams that perform for the graduations and go out in town for special events. While the other companies are marching around in circles, your practicing and doing something constructive. I was in a color company and graduated with honors.

While at 'A' school, it's pretty relaxed. You get up, PT, Breakfast, school, lunch, school, dinner, muster for duty if you have it, or your done after dinner.

Just remember what NAVY stands for, Never Again Volunteer Yourself, and you'll do fine!

haha i like the N.A.V.Y thing thanks man i'm kinda nervous kinda excited kinda scared all at the same time. mostly excited though.
