First RAM White Pig build thread!

[Crashmymax]

Dosen't matter what vehicle I own it's inevitable that I modify it in one way or another. Some successfully some are catastrophic failures. I thought this would be my boujee DD truck for ever. No mods enjoy the luxury! 40,000 miles and I can't take it anymore. First mod 4" BDS lift with some 35's. Second mod fiberglass hood with ram air. Future mod whipple 3.0 supercharger. I have no experience with the 5.7 or its drivetrain. Hopefully it can handle a little boost! In all likelihood I'll eventually ask it to handle alot of boost

Currently have alfaobd on order so I can try and add a few features I'm wanting. Also waiting on Fitcamx front and rear cameras. Little tip don't order the cameras off Amazon. Order from there website and use a promo code. Currently %10 off paid $207 total for front and rear.

Looks good and really dig the hood . Any plans on painting those areas black?

The two side vents will probably change color but I can't decide what I want yet. I tend to lean towards bright colors. I'll let the truck progress for a bit.

That looks really good !

I've also considered a large decal on top of the air scoop. Couple of examples possibly a ram scull.

I figured I would have my fitcamx cameras by now but it looks like they are coming directly from China. It's going to be a bit! Hopefully I'll see my whipple in March sometime. The 3 month wait is going to be painful I want it now!!!

I received everything I need for alfa obd but I had to work all weekend. The only thing I had time to do was fix my speedometer. List of things to do if possible.
Add soft keys for power steps.
Tailgate ajar warning.
Stop the truck from slamming on the brakes and going into park when trying to drive with the drivers door open.
Last one really pisses me off!

Just completed the tailgate ajar warning on mine today. Had to swap out the right side latch as mine didn't have the sensor. Also had to swap out the wire harness but after that enabled it with Alpha and everything seems to work great. The reason I wanted to add it was it now turns on the bed lights just by opening the tailgate and I can backup with the tailgate open. Before if the tailgate was open and I tried to backup it would engage the auto stop braking system and slam on the brakes. Now it just says parking sensors auto stop system not available-tailgate open.

It was only $20 so if I decide I don't like it no big deal.

Also final recieved my cameras from China.

Are you running a stock airlifter system with this Ram Air Hood scoop?

Currently yes. Once I receive and install my whipple I will build a custom air intake to utilize the ram air.

I'm getting close to having a supercharged ram!

Man, you're not playing around. Wow. I'll be following this. Would love to eventually see dyno numbers.

Unfortunately the last dyno in my area just closed. Also our 1/8 mile track closed last year. So no dyno or track # any time soon.
I can't mess around if you have skull on your hood you have to be able to back it up with some ponies!

I wouldn’t see any issues with having a remote tune done on the street. A dyno would be optimal but street tunes are good for drivability

That aught to be fun for sure.

am i the only one that likes the hood just white? i have had issues with decals cracking and needing to be removed more than once it's a PIA. my camaro had the stripes painted on then cleared. they were buried in the clear and wet sanded i did like that.
