i took mine out last week and it made a drastic change in my power i can pull my trailer a lot easier now and i gain speed going up hills that i used to almost lose speed going up but one thing is you will lose mpg with no plate with it turned all the way up or that may have been due to the fact that i raised hell the first few days after i took mine out and also it wont smoke to bad unless u just hammer down on it atleast mine doesn't or until you hit od and start speeding up from there.

fill out your sig too so we know what your working with

 

Just make sure you have atleast an EGT gauge and keep an eye on your exhaust temps with that much fuel going into your motor you gotta keep an eye on it.

 

im running no gauges right now but im taking it easy until i get them

 

running plateless can be VERY street friendly, i run plateless & a gutted AFC and see no smoke in my daily driving. Its all on how you drive, if you drive normal & don't bog it through the gears you don't even hardly see a haze, but if you stomp on the loud pedal it will black out a 4 lane highway

 

now see i can bury my skinny pedal and it'll put out a good bit but nowhere near as much as yall are talking about i must be missing something

 

the preboost screw is where its at if your wanting more fueling.... check into phils sticky on adjusting the afc housing....

 

i took my plate out and i am planing on doing this afc mods (lots of pics) - DieselRam.com
should i do all that he did with grinding and that thing with the washer

 

i did i love it i deffinatly could tell the difference before i took the arm out

 

Thanks guys i took the fuel plate off and its a noticable difference. But im driving it very chill maybe a little throttle when tranny locks but besides that very normal. Next im doing the Valve body so i can start working my way up! You guys recomend Suncoast Valve body? Bully dog Valve body? or ATS valve body? im thinking of going with Suncoasts

 

i'd have to say suncoast or georand (some1 check me on spelling) those would be your two best choices
