it also works on the early 2002 trucks, the ones with the jtec PCM (3 plugs on the PCM)

O pipes work best with electric superchargers. The 100% back pressure of the O pipe, is increased to 150% with the electric supercharger.

From what I hear, throttle body spacers help a LOT, by making the intake air smoother. . . .

Default What cold air intake is best for me ???

I am looking for any and all info as to what cold air intake is best for my truck. I have a 2008 dodge ram 2500 4x4 with the 5.7 hemi . I am also open to any other mods to be done such as controllers or throttle body. I currently only have a cat back exhaust. Let me no and thanks again !..

Should've known from the cg image... that was drrrty!
But as one who is not as auto-mechanically minded, yes. You got me... lol!

On another note, I read the majority thinks that throttle body spacers are a waste of time?
And getting back to the Jeep TCM, will it work on an 02 SXT 4.7?

Throttle Body Spacers only work on engines with carburetor. The reason is because fuel is dumped into the air as it moves through the carburetor and thus creates a atomized mixture, like a mist. When you install a TB spacer you bring the carburetor up further from the intake and also planes in the spacer help to atomize the mixture further and better before flowing into the motor, and get the carburetor up off the motor so it stays cooler. This is why they help.

On Fuel Injection motors (like ours) only air moves through the Throttle Body, it dose not mix fuel. Instead there is a Fuel Injector just above the intake valve that sprays fuel in an atomized state and it directly goes into the air as the valve opens.

As you can clearly see, they do nothing for our Multi-Port Fuel Injection motors. However the companies are being put out of buisness with injected motors like ours so they come up with all sorts of marketing ideas to try to sell their product.

All they are is a expensive paper weight, trust me!

Ha ha you guys are bat rastards..

But seriously, can any of you post a pic or tell me where and how I can tell if I have the 4 plug PCM?
And i did keep track this time of my mileage and how many gallons i filled the tank with, and final calculation is 15.7 mpg. Although that seems kinda higher than I thought (which I like!), I am going to do it again a few more times and get an average.
