Has anyone found plugs to fit in the 6 oblong factory holes that are near the bed rails on a 8 ft bed? Plus the 4 holes behind the tie downs?
 
Thanks

Ordered BD compound turbos today by rthomas1

Today I am ordering BD's compound or some call it twin turbo kit and intercooler today for my 06 Cummins Turbo Diesel. Already have silverline 4" turbo back cat free exhaust with 6" tips, afe stage 2 intake, Bully dog triple dog with outlook monitor, and custom transmission with a suncoast triple disk converter custom valve body and some internal work. It will take 3-4 weeks to get and about a weekend to install but I will let everyone know how good it is and if its worth the large price tag and the overall drop in egt's and spool up time!!!!

BD twins worth it all by rthomas1

Ok got my twins this week along with a fass 200gph system and look out. Super low egts hard to make over 1000 when i used to hit 1350 easy. Spool up is unreal after you hit 10lbs it will hit 50 in a second. Head studs and injectors 110hp ats to be installed within the next two weeks.Lok out. By the way does anyone read this or is it a dead post?

Yeah, I'm reading it, I just didn't have anything to say about it is all. Did your new system come with all the gauges and such? (If you've a manual tranny)Did you replace the clutch? How does it feel driving? How's mpg?

No I had to install a mech boost guage as you have to install a boost fooler. any of the elec guages that read off the map sensor will get to 30 then drop to 0 to insure your truck keeps running and doesent throw overboost lights.
Have a completely rebuilt auto trans, and would think even with a manual you would need a upgraded clutch. Drives great will go from 10 lbs boost to 50+ in less than a second. MPG on the computer are great but it lies so I am in the process of hand calculating my next few tanks.

That sounds great! I'm pretty happy with my truck's stock feel, but I've thought about adding more power every now and again - don't think I need to go all the way to twins though. It will have to wait until A) the warranty runs out and B) I have the excess money to play with!

I would avoid it if I were you till your warranty runs out, because once you start with a chip exhaust and intake it gets addictive. And when you change one thing it leads to another that leads to another and so on. Im just lucky I know a dodge guy or two and can get them to do side work if anything happens. Good luck these truck are awesome.

Dealer U Connect by sirradiodude
Dec 05, 2006 (6:39 pm)
Reply
Anyone with an 05+ (esp CTD owners) have the DEALER INSTALLED version of the UConnect system?
 
If so does it work well at highway speeds? (engine, exhaust and wind noise)
 
Does the radio display the caller phone number?
 
Would you ultimately recommend?
 
THX... I am a big phone user and this thing would be incredible for me if it truely works well.

I just purchased a 2004 Standard Cab, Long Bed, Ram 1500 4X4 wit a 4.7. I love this truck. Has 40,000 miles on it and 8000 of that was in the last 10 weeks. I am looking for some advice on performance upgrades that will not sacrifice gas mileage, as well as advice on how large a tire I can put on at stock height and how large a tire I can put on with a 6" lift. I do not have any intentions of making the thing into a monster, I just believe that because of the trails that I run, the lift is necessary to keep me from high centering. I would also like to have wider tires for flotation in the sand down at the summer beach home. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
