Free/Cheap Mods?
 

anybody got some ideas for free or cheap stuff i can do my truck? im off of work for two weeks and im gonna get really bored

Replace the intake baffle with a piece of pipe.

What size pipe and what kind??

I think its 6" exhaust tube to replace the center section. Or you can just gut the stock piece for free.

I used 5" exaust pipe onmine, It sucked the hose down abit to clamp it but its still bigger that the stock piece.

I've seen some of you dodge guys use flexible Dryer duct. Man that looks SWEET!

intake baffle, silncer ring, swiss cheese the airbox, gut the cat, straight pipe exhaust... should sound niiicceee

Wouldnt cutting a 4" hole in the bottom of the air box ands running the ducting do the same as swiss cheesing it?
Just curious.

Yes, but with the ducting to the bottom of the fender you them have a cold air intake.

Dont forget that Cardboard "Heat Shield" 15+ H.P. on the dyno!

i need to make a heat shield for my intake

Put a ziptie on the radiator overflow tube next to the cap to keep it from leaking:dm:

Whitmore, you have my vote for favorite avatar of all time.....

That was some footage I took when I was in question of if I needed new shocks or not :U:

click for animation

that is the greatest avatar ever

I cut a 4" hole in the bottom on my stock airbox. Screwed in a Dryer hose adapter that vents to the outside of the house. Then attached a dryer hose to the bottom of the fenderwell and secured using tie wraps. Also attached a 4" stove pipe bend to the bottom of the hose. Instant ram air effect.

how do you gut the cat? Without taking it to the muffler shop. Sorry for the stupid ? but if anyone has a vid on it i'm interested. thanks

please elaborate.

do you put in front of the radiator? I thought that was just to get heat faster in the wintertime.

what about the vent mod on the fuel tank

Good one, I have an annoying single drop on the verge of dripping ... never would have thought about this one on my own.

isnt there anything fuel related that is free turning up the fuel pump anything to pump my truck up with some more fuel

this is on third gens in this thread, on a 24 valve, there aint anyway to get more fuel for free, just like on the 3rd gens.

you can only turn up the pumps on 2nd gen and 1st gen. 3rd and up are all computer controlled need a programmer to turn up your pump

only 12 valve 2nd gens, the 24valve vp44 is a second gen, requires programmer or downloader

oh woops. i knew what i was thinkin just didnt say it right haha

anything
 

is there anything i can do i just cant swing the programer rite now i have propane and cold air is there anything at all that doesnt involve computer junk

chris try posting and searching in here
24v bombs

You could replace the airbox to turbo section (after the curve from airbox before the turbo) straight section with a 5 inch pvc and get rid of the baffled stock piece use two large clamps and don't overtighten. You can really hear the difference after doing this less than a dollar mod. 5 in pvc hard to get from plumber not too common but is available and that is tube size you need.
