This is Tune Time Performance in Lakewood New Jersey. Matt Hauffe is the owner and center of the operation, James is one of the ‘mad-scientist’ tuners and Lenny is the guy behind the counter that talks paranoid customers out of meltdowns. They’re a soup-to-nuts speed shop and it is the most...

Through the years I’ve gained enough experience in the muscle car scene to know that I’ve encountered a uniquely talented, highly sought-after speed shop when I saw see these things in the parking lot:

If you’re like me and your vehicle is your baby you want the best for it. You spend hours each month washing and detailing it; you are always ahead of the maintenance schedule and you lavish it with accessories and spoils wherever you can. You look forward to getting in it for a late day...

It was dyno tuned at ProCharger on a Mustang Dyno. The stock baseline numbers were high 200's and the final was mid 400's. If I remember correctly, the dynojet numbers are 10% higher on average. I'll try to get exact numbers or I'll get a print-out if it gets re-dyno'ed on a correction tune...

This is with air ride setting to "off-road". Normal mode looks best and entry/exit mode still allows my 70+ year old friends and family get in and out without too much complaining. Mechanically the truck is phenomenal and pulls like a freight train but the tune is not right yet and there are...

I posed every pic I got from the vendor. As soon as I pick it up I will post more.

Here are three pictures to show tire / body position for those considering aftermarket tires/wheels. This is a 2021 Ram Rebel with BDS beta 4" Air Ride Suspension, Mopar beadlock capable wheels, Part # 82215259AB and Nitto Ridge Grappler 35x12.5R18 tires. Stock fenders and the tires tuck in...

LMAO!! Thank you, the interest and support is much appreciated. I don't have the truck back yet. A marketing executive of Sport Truck USA sent me that pic yesterday and I immediately posted it on here. With COVID and supply chains being in upheaval all over the country, the project is...

2021 Rebel with beta ProCharger kit and beta BDS 4" air-ride suspension kit, Mopar beadlock-capable wheels and Nitto Ridge Grappler 35x12.5 R18s.

You guys were right. Thank you for the accurate info sharing. It makes a difference. BDS techs were kind enough to put some 17" wheels up on the truck and closely compare for clearance or near-clearance with caliper shaving (grinding down of outer casting of brake calipers). They concluded...

I also wanted to go with 37s but BDS advised 35s. OK but...how come? What's wrong with my calculator? Our stock tires are 33 and with a 4" lift kit; even with air ride up and down.... 37 should clear even at lowest setting, no?

Hi DevilDodge, Actually I just posted the information like a careless idiot but thank you for the kind 'typo' description. That's appreciated. When I got approved for the BDS 2021 Rebel Air Ride 4" Beta Lift Kit project, I spoke with one of their engineers; kind of like pre-project...

The suspense is KILLING me.

What about shaving the calipers? Has anyone considered it or looked into it? We used to do that with Cobras to fit 15" Weld rim.

Thank you, that is extremely valuable info. I owe you one!!!
