    2020 Ram 1500 Bighorn audio upgrade

    I think you'll have a nice build, so I'll be interested in your follow-up after completed. As for your choices, I haven't had or heard anything from Skar except for their subs. I did a full 6 speaker replacement with infinity reference speakers, and the sound quality improved a lot. Are you...

    NOX or EGR sensor issues on Ecodiesel?

    Yeah, I have made an appointment with another dealer that should have a good set of diesel mechanics. Truck is definitely still under warranty, with only about 12k miles. I guess I was just hoping that someone with a similar experience would see the post and let me know their solution.

    NOX or EGR sensor issues on Ecodiesel?

    Hey all, I'm struggling a bit here. Have issues with my 2020 Ram EcoD throwing CEL for sensors out of range. Wondering if others are having similar issues. I suddenly lose all power, no turbo and it just stutters along. I'll pull over and shut it off or give it a couple minutes at a higher idle...

    Stereo upgrade!!!

    How about a pic or two! I'd like to see where you located the amp and how the 12" fit. Sounds like a great upgrade. I did infinity door and dash speakers with an 8" Sub. I'm now regretting not putting in an amp to run the infinity speakers although it does sound way better than stock. I...

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    The .4 ft³ box I used is barely enough cubic feet for the sub I have, so no I don't think it will work for a 10" unless you find a shallow sub that can get away with that small of a box. Check out the Skar vd-8 but be sure to use a better power source than I got. I'm now looking to get a...

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    Yeah, no question that will do it. I've been looking at 5 channel amps which would give me 50rms to the four 6x9's and 200rms to the sub. I think that's more than adequate especially considering how the 6x9's sound already just on the infotainment system which is prob less than 20wpc

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    Amplifying the 6x9's will certainly make them sound much better. The 6x9's would like far more power than the stock head unit will give them. My brother has the identical truck as me but with the hemi and I suggested he start with just replacing the 3.5" dash speakers with infinity. When I did...

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    Yeah, same thought. Won't keep a thief from getting everything but it won't be quick and easy. I like your setup... already wishing I had a little more bass. I couldn't find a nice custom box for a single 10 or 12" so I went with what I have now

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    Did you do anything to fasten the box down? If not, I found that the (covered up) factory bolt holes under the seat worked well. I made up some 3/16" steel brackets to screw the sub box to. Worked great, very stiff and I think it came out clean

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    I did not amplify my infinity reference speakers and I can get a lot of volume out of them without distortion. I installed them first and found the max volume I wanted to get out of them with the bass set at zero and mid down a couple notches. I then installed and adjusted the sub to that max...

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    I got my system finished up today. It was pretty straightforward since I don't have ANC on my base 6 speaker system. First I replaced the factory garbage with infinity speakers running on the head unit. That alone made a huge difference. For a bit more low end without beating up the 6x9's, I...

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    Wow this looks awesome ☝! I'll bet it pounds, good job. I'm starting to wish I didn't go with a single 8" haha

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    Alright, I too am have some info overload. I‘ve got a 2020 ecodiesel with stock 6 speaker on the 8.4 infotainment system. I’ve got an 8” dvc sub, box and matching amp. I also picked up a LOC w/ bass knob, and KnuKonceptz wiring kit. My Pioneer amp has high input with auto on, so my plan was...

    Limited Eco diesel

    I'm with ya, but I see no replies. I've head that the CAI improves sound but with little to no performance gain. Did you try that? Prob my next mod

    Whats up?!? Happy turkey day. I've been lurking and figured it was time to join. A bit about me. I recently bought my 6th new Dodge/Ram and I've never been able to leave a single vehicle I've owned stock. Mainly intake, exhaust, tuner and custom audio. So far I've had an '05 1500 regular...
