Diesels are held to different emissions standards than gasolines. they don't emit the same things.

even running straight pipe (no muffler) and a boost elbow and boost fooler, while still mostly stock, my truck blew 2% opacity in emissions check. anything 40% and under opacity is a pass. VP44 motors with stock tuning run super clean. but look how detuned they are stock... 235hp (flywheel) in dodge configuration stock. RV configuration of the same exact motor is 275hp (flywheel) and marine version of same motor is 300hp (flywheel)

mine with stock tuning now along with the rest of my mods but fueling/timing control box turned off is 372hp, with performance tuning added up to 550hp by modifying the fueling and injector timing curves, and injector duration.

No snow here on Long Island yet and none last year to speak of. It's a bit discouraging as I do make a pretty good buck when it snows. Mother Nature can be a real wench sometimes.

Sleet halted the beer run, just didn't feel like pushing my luck. This is the first snow my Ram has seen, possibly ever.

eh, dont be a pansy. i drove around in 2wd all day yesterday with over 800# hanging off the front of my truck. only had about 400# in the bed, but it doesnt add any traction, just counter acts the weight. on top of that, im in need of new tires soon too.

the roads were slick as hell too. didnt really get touched until the storm was halfway over.
