    Custom tuning

    I tuned my 2020 with HP Tuners. But first I had to sent my ECU off the HP Tuners to get it unlocked. I suggest investing in a HEMI tuning course. It's not intuitive. Also tuning the Neural Network requires a Neural Network trainer. HP Tuners has a NN trainer. $50 gets you 30 days access.

    Lack of Coasting/Drag/Engine-Braking?

    2020, I've only experienced that if the cruise control is on. Often cancel it downhill to coast.

    Yes, a Dumb Question: Rear Diff Fluid

    I put Mobil 1 75w90LS in mine. LS means the additive is already in there. With 3.92 if you are towing often might go with the heavier weight gear oil. I believe I picked up a little gas mileage when I changed mine.

    What would you recommend to do when doing cam kit - exhaust upgrade?

    With a cam you will want heaver valve springs. Might as well replace any seals while you got it apart. Especially at 100k miles.

    2022 RAM 1500 5.7 hemi Transmission 8HP75 Oil pan/Filter integrated

    I used this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C8B6VKGW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title Worked fine. Couldn't tall any difference between it and the OEM that I took off.

    Tier 1 Nerf Bars?

    I have a set of Westin's that are rusting out already on my 2020. Who makes a quality set that will last? Black not chrome.

    Anyone removed this screen/filter??

    Removed mine right after I got it. Then upgraded to the Chrysler RAM airflow CAI which didn't even have one.

    Changing Transmission fluid

    True, but if clutch debris is all that's keeping your trans going you are on borrowed time. Don't flush, just drain an fill. Just DIYed mine a just over 50k miles.

    Low oil pressure?

    I'm more familiar with LS engines than the HEMI. But for the LS the rule of thumb is 10psi of oil pressure per 1,000 RPM. In that context 22psi is plenty at idle.

    Lift motor to do exhaust manifolds?

    I put long tube header on mine without raising the motor up. PITA some of the header bolts are nearly impossible to get a wrench on... Manifolds should be way easier.

    8HP75 Transmission Service

    Placement of the aftermarket Kooks Y pipe prevented me from removing the drain plug. So I replaced the whole pan with a Dorman. Was getting dark and the fluid was too hot to do the final fluid level check, so I will do that tonight when I get home from work. I could not tell a difference...

    8HP75 Transmission Service

    I'm at 50k and plan to do the fluid service. Got quoted $495 for OEM pan/filter from dealer parts. Since Ram don't recommend a service interval, I'm going to just drain and fill only. Keep the original pan/filter. Yes there are cheaper knock off pans/filters but I've read there are issues...

    Brown Sludge on Coolant Dipstick?

    If you mixed red and green coolant together then yes that is your cause.
