All emissions stuff is bad and should be removed post haste! lol. Every single aftermarket intake system will not retain the carbon filter, it wont hurt anything to take it out.

If you are in there to replace the stock filter with a drop in aftermarket, you may as well remove the carbon filter. Just the carbon on its own was not noticeable in my opinion, but with both the K and N and the filter delete it was just enough to get a touch more noise. Maybe a couple HP but...

good feedback! do you use the edge screen or just the pulsar on its own?

Glad your truck is also problem free! I certainly love mine and agree that bad news often drowns out all of the happy owners out there. What specific drive-ability improvements did you get with the pulsar?

I pulled it, no noticeable gain in sound or power. If you are installing an aftermarket filter my opinion is that you might as well pull it... if you gain a few hp from deleting it and a few more from the new filter it might be worth it, and who doesn't like free mods?

looks great, do you have more photos from other angles?

I would think it would be similar to the laramie tested by car and driver, 22" wheels probably slow it down by a tenth but 3:92 gears should get that back. 5.9 -6.2 seconds should be close.

where are you located?

I would like to see this as well, lots of lifted trucks around now but not many lowered.

what i want to see is a cross hair / gen 4 style grill on a 5th gen. I'm surprised that they haven't been floating around all over the place as many people seem to lament the fact that the new trucks didn't retain that historic design feature.

I removed mine and would say it made little to no difference to the performance or sound. It does have carbon in it so it makes sense that it is for emissions. I was hoping for more intake noise but it isn't noticeable.

To back up the tire idea, the previous gen GM trucks and SUV use the same tires i believe.... both in 22" and the 20".

I notice a vibration at around 60MPH with my 3;92 gears and 22" wheels, it is very minor but more noticeable in 4x4 auto. In my mind it is a very minimal annoyance in the smoothest and quietest truck I have ever had. Its one of those things that if you know its supposed to be an issue, you...

As long as all 4 tires are the same outside diameter on a 4x4 vehicle you are golden. You can throw 35" tires on a stock truck and not do anything mechanically as long as they physically fit on the truck. It will just change the way it drives a little, and throw off your speedometer as the...

If i did it again I would get 3:21 gears, first is really low in these trucks anyway so getting off the line isn't a problem. I think the lower highway RPM is more of a benefit than the marginal improvement in acceleration. Just my 2 cents from a guy that's had a few rams.

As i understand it, the new 8HP75 is able to handle more torque than the previous 8HP70, the srt 6.4 vehicles use the same designation (8HP70) so even the old trans must be good for 500 hp or so. :) As for tuning, I am sure a good custom tuner would not have any issues. People tune new lambos...

I'm hoping for an aluminum 426, boost is good but you cant beat big v8 naturally aspirated power. It would also have enough grunt to run a taller axle ratio, to keep the economy reasonable ish on the highway.

It's only a matter of time until ready built kits are available. Any good speed shop could build you a supercharger system no problem, as the motor on the new truck is the same as the previous gen.

I meant full size, i wasnt very clear. I love the charger and challenger but although they are larger than the mustang and camaro they dont have anything like the space of a crew cab ram. Short of a CT6 or s-class/ 7 series rwd, v8 and big back seat are hard to come by. It is widely acknowledged...
