sweet,let us know how everything feels on the test ride. gonna be getting mine shortly.glad everything went together for ya easy. i hope mine goes the same way.
i am gonna change my oil after i run mine a little. or do you think i should change it before the install? i have about 3500 miles on my royal purple.so its about due anyway.i used a qt of oil in that time. do you think thats normal, to use a qt in 3500 miles? it doesnt smoke any, and no leaks.

I would check the plenum gasket if you have not already done so.http://dodgeram.info/tsb/2000/09-05-00.htm

Just took her out to run some errands, and let me tell ya! LOL This is the best mod I've done by far. I know the tuner, exhaust,and TB are all enhancing/complimenting each other some what, but this one upgrade has given me the most power. The added power is to say the least, awesome. More power at bottom end all the way up. Throttle response is unreal. Before I had to mash it more than half way to get the thing to feel like I had any power, and now it takes off right away. Inclines are no prob now, no down shifting to get up the hills, and when I do push it harder going up and it does downshift, it takes off like a rocket.
We had a snow storm the other day and I could creep out of slippery parking lot without spinning the tires, and today I could hardly touch the throttle and the wheels would spin. I seriously don't think I need to change gears to 4:10's at this point. I don't drive it hard and the power from this upgrade has a nice feel to it when I take off normally from a dead stop.
The shift points have also changed(for the better), which I'm sure has to do with the rpm's and getting to up speed easier.
Anyway, this is a great mod.
