    48re

    I have 22k on my 03 with a TST. I run it on 4/4 and at least 12k of those miles are pulling a 10-12 thousand pound toyhauler all over the place and through lots of mountains. No problems yet. It does shift a little funny sometimes, but I've only noticed it at lighter throttle as I'm slowing down...

    Need A Box.please Help.

    California 03, AFE, 4" Hog exhaust, 48RE, TST The TST rocks. Never a code since I installed it at least a year ago. Many miles since then towing a 30' toyhauler loaded between 10-12k. Can tow on 4/4 with no EGT problems, but I help by letting off for shifts when I pull the trailer. Not an EGT...

    Triple lock vs. single??

    This is the sickest thread I have ever read, and I read threads on canoes, dirtbikes, boats, politics, you name it. I can't read this anymore. P. S. It ATS or DTT wants me to test a torque converter on my TST 03, just send it and I'll install it! I'll get back to you in 200,000 or so.

    TST out of stock

    I installed mine and have driven it for four days. No codes, all is well. I love it. Setting 1/1-definite improvement over stock. 2/2-Quite a bit more than stock. I lusted for 3/3. It was even better! I have run 4/4, but generally run 3/3, which is more than enough. You can play with the...

    Repaired 48RE

    Try to find out the source of the problem, or it may just go again in 15,000 miles. I feel for you. By the way, my 48 RE has 13,000 on it, and about half of that towing 10,000lbs. Rock solid so far. Now if only the power steering wasn't leaking.

    Has anyone been denied warrantly coverage yet?

    Too bad everyone can't afford to sue a dealer every time they did it. It's cheaper for them to fix it.

    TST in cab remote

    How about a wireless remote with a little readout? Now I could go for that. I want a free one if TST does it however. I said it first!! :)

    Any mix syn & Dino?

    Just think of the lawsuits if you mixed dino and syn and it ruined your engine. However, I agree with the below post. What would be the point?

    TST out of stock

    That's what I've been hearing. I can't wait to get mine installed. I'm going to test it out by hooking up the toyhauler and heading for the hills.

    Well, I guess they are in stock. Shipped last Friday.

    Heat sheilds for the exhaust system

    Great ideas. I've been thinking of doing something like this myself to keep the heat out. Between the large dark colored dash and the engine/exhaust heat, the AC runs virtually all the time here in CA.

    TST out of stock

    TST lists their box for the 03 Dodge as out of stock. Has anyone contacted them and gotten an estimated date when they will be available? I emailed but no response. I guess the one I just ordered is now backordered. Thanks

    EGT what is to High

    I do believe that the top of a piston is designed to run very hot, and also remember that once the exhaust is expelled, pressure and temps drop significantly on the piston, giving it time to cool. As a matter of interest, back in my Navy pilot days, there were power settings we were allowed...

    48RE growl or grind on final shift.

    Mine does it too. A mechanic type told me they all did. Mine has done it since new, but it was pretty unnoticable until I installed a 4" exhaust. Therefore I think it's related to the turbo... If it makes you feel any better, I think mine would have gone by now if it was going to. About 13000...

    EGT what is to High

    Just did a quick search, and some article said that chrome... begins to blue at 1250 degrees, and that ceramic coated headers dull. It didn't mention other about other metals. I'm personally not going to worry about it. I've seen a zillion blue exhaust pipes before. They also make some stuff to...
