They do make a fog variant....
I was going to do the direct-fit cat until I saw the price. lol
I don't even remember the brand of the cat I was looking at, but it was a cat. lol
I guess the cat won't cost as much as the timing set and since the timing cover isn't leaking super bad right now, I can hold off on it a little longer.
....?

 

Later today I'm gunna be able to test out a Superchips tuner for my dodge,(few days) came off another 2nd gen dodge. Will just trying it out hurt my truck and do I need to remove the negative battery terminal before I put in the tuner?

 

Don't know about the chip, but you definitely need to disconnect the the battery before messing around with any of the electronics.

 

If your OBD-II connector isn't hosed up and so presenting the opportunity for a failed upload, the Superchips tuner won't hurt anything. And no, you do not remove the negative battery terminal -- the tuner needs power to operate, and the PCM does, too. Before uploading a new tune to your PCM, the Superchips tuner will download and store the existing tune so it can be restored later.

Just to be on the safe side, don't push, pull, wiggle, or jar the OBD-II plug while the tuner is hooked up.

If the stock tune was not restored to the other truck, the Superchips tuner will be VIN locked to that truck and won't do anything for you. You'll know it if that happens because it'll tell you.

 

This is the cat I am looking at. And that has gone up by $20 since I looked at it in June.

 

I tried out the tuner. Says its VIN locked when I plugged it in. Gave performance and 87 mode a try, didn't notice too much get up and go but it did give me longer shift points. Still have towing performance mode to try out but will use it later.

 

I leave mine on the towing tune all the time, and find it to be a nice balance between zip and economy. On flat ground with no wind, unladen, I get just shy of 16MPG cruising at 65MPH. Not all of that is due to the tune.

Truth be told, I only bought the Superchips because they said it could be used to calibrate for tire size, but on my early '98 it won't. I'd have gone with an SCT from hemifever if I'd known that. I might yet, just to get rid of the torque management that my transmission doesn't need.

 

Yep my tuner gave me the option for changing tire sizes too and a few other adds. The tuner I'm using is for 98-03 Dodge/Chrysler trucks 5.2,5.9, and 3.6. Can also be used for 4.7 and 5.7 Hemi's.

 

installed led 194 bulbs in my cab lights, for a future strobe light use. just need to purchase an led flasher, and some better quality led bulbs. bought the led's on ebay, NEVER WILL AGAIN! 5 out of the 10 i bought came NON FUNCTIONING!

 

If it is VIN locked, it should not have loaded anything......

Changing tire size (at least in a 99) is a function of RAWL controller (according to FSM). Which explains why most tuners don't do it...Maybe superchips can comm to RAWL module...
