    exhaust

    Ok I am thinking of changing my exhaust and wondering if you really need to upgrade the downpipe if all your planning is a chip or tuner. I can see why we need to on the IDI and the OBS psd's but the down pipe on my 03 looks like its already the same size as what I upgraded to on my 96 :dunno

    What no will power when it comes to horse power LOL Let nick put it in for ya on a low setting so your not tempted to up the power. I think the thing about the tranny is if your the only one driving you know how you drive and just cause you have more power don't mean its hurting your tranny...

    just a few new truck questions

    I guess some are cursed with low MPG I have a buddy with an X 4x4 and his little info pod states 21-22 which I know most are wrong but even if it is off 2-3 thats pretty good but it has some kind of program in it so maybe that is helping I dunno. You know anyone up there with a programmer that...

    just a few new truck questions

    Yeah my father in-law has an 02 and tows all the time and you can't notice the turbo whine. The auto is ok I would still rather have the manual but didn't want to wait for ever to find one. It has a K&N tube and open element filter which I'm gonna see how it does for a bit then swap in the 6637...

    well the thing is its only $20-$30 more to buy the same radio with the tuner built in as opposed to buying an HD ready radio and having to buy a $100 tuner later on and I can only see more stations going to HD

    basically I was just wondering if theres a web page with basic info on our trucks where you can find out what years had what HP and what all the fx4 package consists of and how to read the door tag to see what gears it has and if they are limited slip or not. Thanks

    vacuum source on 7.3 for Hydrogen cell install

    any connection to the intake is going to be preasurerized when you make boost and even running empty at 55 I make about 5 psi so your almost never going to run on your hho

    vacuum source on 7.3 for Hydrogen cell install

    you don't need anything the generator builds pressure as it works. Not a lot but enough to push the gas out thru a bubbler and to where you need it just hook you line anywhere between the filter and the turbo and it'll be fine

    what the heck is wrong with my front end?

    because of the alignment which is toe in just a little when you back up your tires pull out so whatever is wore out in your axle gives and lets it pull out like that. My guess is your pivot bushings are shot and maybe the spring bushings
