    I raced one the other day...it's the first year of the "pig nose" body style but it was a 5.9 with an exhaust, not a hemi. He did a huge river flyby on me so I caught up to him and we did a 40 roll and i just walked him...all I have is a home made intake and a u bend and resonator delete. So after that we go from a dig and I walked him even worse. In other words, that dog of a ram doesn't stand a chance what so ever
    As I walk through the valley of rice, i shall fear no turbo, for torque art with me

    With a 3.4" pulley, colder plugs, and an intake as your mods- you my friend are seeing a lot of KR. Instead of a resonator delete, you should have deleted the U-bend.
    This will be a close race if you go from a dig to ~70mph. After that, you are on borrowed time....

    lol what? You honestly think a GTP vs a 5.9 RAM is any sort of a race? And you honestly think that tank is going to pull him on the top end? The only chance the RAM would have is if the GTP popped a piston.

    Sorry if you were just being sarcastic and i didn't catch it. Otherwise, just lol.

    Do you have money for another motor? The 3.4 has claimed more engines than any other pulley. You are running a stock tune, a restrictive exhaust, no valvetrain mods, and a smaller pulley? And you ask how do I know you have KR? Not trying to flame you- just stating the obvious.

    Another thing, how did you chop off your resonator? did you weld a straight piece of pipe in its place? If you did, then you could do the same for the U-bend. And buy a bung from Mcmaster (about $2.00) and weld it in the pipe for the O2 sensor.

    im only 17 years old and i get paid 8.50 an hour getting 20 hours every check. i dont have alotta money. yeah i welded in a straight pipe in place of the resonator. i was gonna do that for the U bend but the 02 sensor stopped me. and theres a collector before the U bend which i do not want to get rid of. and the stock exhaust isnt very restrictive. the only part that i would think makes it restrictive would be the cat cuz i havnt seen inside it. the muflers are basically straight thru design stock.
    sometimes i can feel the car holding back but other times it runs like a champ. i have 143k miles on it. my friend has 200k wit the same mods on his 00 GTP. we raced and i beat him everytime. i also need a MAF sensor. throwin codes. take it easy on me. i only had the car for about a month. idk that much about these cars yet so some of my questions might seem stupid to people. thanks
