Not in the least...it actually makes the kegger mod work better. This is a design I came up with years ago and still have the original prototype inside the modified kegger on my '01 RT. I've made a couple of changes in it over the years in different intakes I've modified and the one you see on ebay I believe to be the best yet. I've been working together with 1999BLKDAKRT who is a member on the forum and he's put this deal together with everything being pre-made and ready to bolt on.

When I modified the intake on my RT, I did notice a small drop in low end torque which bothered me somewhat. I came up with the idea for the 'turtle' or V-RAM as it's called now, to help direct the incoming air to the shortened runners instead of having all that air turbulence inside the hollow intake. I never did dyno the difference between the two but my 'butt dyno' told me I gained back my lost bottom end torque plus more to boot. I did the same thing to a V6 truck that I owned and the bottom end power was greatly increased.

I've just recently modified a 5.9 intake for a friend of mine and Brian (1999BLKDAKRT) furnished the V-RAM plate. My friend has agreed to do before and after dyno runs so we can have some numbers to show. Hopefully we'll have the dyno sheets within the next 30 days.

Nothing I do is sketchy, this is a very legitimate product, I have sold hundreds of throttle bodies that people initially thought that for 99 bucks were sketchy. Check my feedback and see if you find honesty and integrity in the product I provide dodge and jeep owners.
Thanks Brian

I have to say the fact that your "selling" on ebay whats free information posted here in the DIY section before you even joined and likely plagerized from here on how to do the kegger mod doesnt say much for integrity...just saying...It doesnt look good. It would have been better business practice to direct the buyers of you plates and such to the DIY posted here unless there's some additional modifications in your directions that are your discovery and not common knowledge on the forums..

yeah yeah... point made You have to admit most ebay seller dont post and suggest links to other sellers on their pages... Its still crappy he would suggest buying the instructions there than getting free with better support from somewhere like here... Selling free and open knowledge like that is shady period in my opinion. and at first glance most buyer likely overlook the fact that its a different seller too....
