Default Superchips 3715 installed...

So, I installed my Superchips 3715 last night. And then immediately when and added some octane boost and a few gallons of 101 octane to offset the 87/89 octane that was in half of the tank. It runs fine, no ping after the gas. I have it in the 91 Power setting... It does pull harder in driving situations, but doesn't quite have the added oomph I was hoping for off the line. Any suggestions? The programmer is the only add-on so far.

You mean intake manifold or air cleaner?

I've been seriously considering that hughes intake manifold. $600 bucks but probably worth every penny. No more plenum gasket worries.

You should buy it... and tell me how you like it. I've been pondering this one too...

I think I got a pretty good deal, used for $165 shipped on fleaBay. I guess I'm still having a hard time noticing a MAJOR difference, but I can tell it has a definite bump. As far as breathing better, I have an Edelbrock round air cleaner assembly sitting in my garage that I bought years ago from y '77 GMC and never installed. Will this fit on my Ram? I really can't justify ponying up the $$$ for a CAI right now.
