Installed a psmcold air intake today on my 03 laramie and wow was it easy.

It took only 30 mins to complete and the fit was awsome.

I did some Quick testing and my exhast temp is down more than 50 degrees.
 
I did a bit of testing on my 05 and found 0 diff untill you change the filter,plugged the lower intake hose p/up and exactly the same as with it open... ... ... ... ... not worth the money for those results. I boxed it up and sent it back. Now I am running an AFE stage 11 and have all the air I will ever need. :cool:

I installed the PSMCold Air system for several reasons. First, it is a more refined way to get the same effect as the DYI system described in the TDR magazine. My 04 factory system has a smaller fender intake opening than the newer models, indicating to me that the higher output engines need more flow. The PSMCold Air takes air from outside of the hot engine compartment. It includes a baffle that closes off the engine compartment hot air from the suction of the extension hose. The DYI described in the TDR magazine does not accomplish the isolation.



Reading the latest Diesel Power, one technical article highly critizes the "filter on a stick" approach of some of the high dollar intake systems. He said that any system that you can see the filter when you open the hood is not good. Hot air from the engine compartment is not the source of air desired.



The PSMCold Air system was so inexpesive that I also purchased the Cool Blue torque tube, giving me a total system. I really, REALLY like the Cool Blue torque tube. It is quiet and is excellent at insulating the incoming air from the hot engine compartment.



Do any of the systems offer huge increases in performance?? I really have not read any independent test that show anything but minimal improvement. One thing I do know about my choices - cold air can't be bad.
 
I have done the same thing as LesStallings, PSM and cool blue hose. An article in TDR I think last month where at last years May Madness this intake was taken to the dyno and it proved itself. With a new Dodge air filter in the box stock intake WOT I would pull down the Filter Minder (It's noting getting enough air). With the PSM intake WOT same air filter the filter minder is not pulled down. It is getting all the air my stock CTD needs now. I'm very happy with this system. Plus you can hear the turbo, but not to loud.

Be sure to ask for the TDR discount. They also have intercooler hoses, etc.



Go ahead and get both! I got the intercooler hoses with the CBH and it is much better than stock! I'm suprised more bombers are not at least using the intercooler hoses from DPP, they are alot better quality than the stockers.



Dave has great prices for us too.
