    PICS!! - My turbo is dusted, how bad is it????

    I had a K&N on my 2002 for a while. Intake ductwork looked the same as the pictures at the start of this thread. Now I use the factory type paper filters in my 2007 truck.

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Can you guys help this guy out?

    Posting this for a friend. He says: "My girlfriend owns a 02 RAM 2500 CTD with 147K miles. She was backing a horse trailer in to her driveway and the truck dumped all the power steering fluid on the road. When I got there I looked under the hood at night with a flashlight and saw the front of...

    3.42 or 3.73, What is your opinion???

    That's with the newer 0. 74 ratio, the older one was 0. 79:1.

    3.42 or 3.73, What is your opinion???

    0. 74:1 OD ratio for the 6 speed stick x 3. 42 = 2. 53 0. 62:1 OD ratio for 68RFE 6 speed auto x 4. 10 = 2. 54 So, with a 6 speed stick and 3. 42s, you have almost the same final drive ratio as a guy with an auto and a 4. 10 rear. I say get the 3. 42s unless you are into racing up hills with a...

    horsepower

    I read the reasoning as this. The cab and chassis trucks are sold as workhorses only, and the "commercial" market may not care so much about advertised hp/tq like the private owners do. Also, they speculate that, as the truck will be sold as a workhorse only, it will see a higher "duty" cycle...

    Dodge Ram has the highest insurance premium

    Likely because more Dodges are used for commercial hauling (like Hotshotting).

    MPG test w/programmer - increase or false claims?

    I have this theory about tuners/programmers, and their effect on mpg. I believe that they fool the in cab mpg display to tell you that you are getting better mpg, when in fact that isn't the case. I have spoken to numerous people, and read numerous posts on internet forums (this one and others)...

    transmission ?s

    I'd tell them about the problems you are experiencing so it's documented. That way, if the TSB doesn't fix it, they can look for another issue.

    Do I have a bad injector?

    This morning it was a little cooler. The WTS light came on, and there was no smoke until the voltage gauge climbed back up (intake grid heater cycled off), then the smoke returned for a bit, then the grid heater cycled on again (volt drop), then the smoke went away. Based on this, I think maybe...

    Do I have a bad injector?

    I watched the video posted by another member that does have a bad injector, and since I'm a new 3rd gen CR owner, I thought I'd watch my exhaust when I first start my truck. Today it's about 80*F outside. Truck has been sitting overnight. Went out to start it, the intake heater light did not...

    Rear axle dimensions

    They are the same in that they are both AAM 11. 5s. What i don't know is if they have the same length axle tubes. I'm thinking they are, but you might have to crawl under to check for sure.

    Mileage of 07 Automatics with 5.9 engines?

    On the highway trip (500 miles) when I brought mine home it got 22mpg (US gal, hand calculated) which was 26 mpg (Imperial gal). That was with a dirty air filter, which I replaced it when I got home. It was bone stock then. I have since added the Hypertech Max Energy, but haven't done a similar...

    Duramax Video

    I realize this is getting dug up from the archives, but there's a lot more to this story than mentioned here. You can look it up on the net if anyone wants to read it by searching "txchristopher". he is the guy in the video -- who now sells an aftermarket cure for overheating Durmaxes...

    I give !

    The 2004. 5 will say 325 on the "Advertised hp" on the white sticker on the driver's side of the valve cover. the 2004 is 305. Also, the watsegate on the turbo on the 2004. 5 has a wire attached to it (electronic), and the 2004 does not.
