yes you can get the intake port/polished it will smooth out the flow, might open it up a little bit, i wont expect much of a gain from it in the mpg department, your best bet for mpgs is to drive it like a granny (lol, yea right, like thats possible in jersey) if you ever NEED an extra set of eyes and can drive up to north jersey and meet i dont mind putting eyes on the truck for ya. another thing is check your vacume lines, vac leaks can wreak absolute havoc on the truck with running rough and bad mpgs and all sorts of weird stuff

Yeah for the most part I have a 30 mile drive each way to work and it is almost all interstate.

LMAO, hydra that story is priceless. And I've seen plenty of Durangos at the track. It's not the most outrageous thing to go all out under the hood with a heavier vehicle.

Hmm I would like to drive my D or Ram thru almost 2 feet of snow, not a little tuner. And, I can't imagine you drove thru 2 feet of snow like it was nothing in a Mitsubishi Evo like it was nothing. Unless you have some all terrain tires (not likely) and a lot of weigh to give it traction (Only about 3,000 lb).

I'm sure you drove through it nice with the AWD but I doubt like it was nothing. 2 feet of snow is 2 feet of snow no matter what your driving. Especially when the car only sits 6 inches off the ground.

i Already edited i ment to say i saw an evo i wish i own one but ya it was all rally out big fogs in the front it was about 18 snow and like 7 on the road if not more lol but i thought it would get stuck in a parking lot that i was turning in with him but no lol he made it threw nicely not nothing but a lot better then i thought it would!

Got anything real to post like times or horsepower numbers? Dude you guys really shouldn't be posting this or that works without facts that prove this works. I have nothing fast at the moment I am still gathering parts for my LS swap in my 87 monte but I seriously doubt your D could have touched my bolt on TPI 305 TA and buy performance car standards it was slow.


P.S. Street racing is stupid.

Biff, you only have 40 posts so I'm assuming you're rather new here. Let me give you some advice, your picking a fight with the wrong person. You're apparently working your way to getting no tips or advice in any topic you post by them. Sometimes its just better to shut up rather than pick a fight and disagree with everyone.
