RE: homade power wire
I'm not going to argue, but you wrote "All I'm saying is that these engines are designed to perform within the specifications of the manufacturer."
Aren't ALL engines made this way?
How many stock Evo's, STi's, SRT4', or any performance cars, do you see.. stock?
Seriously, every engine is left with lots of room for improvement, and if it's left stock, of course it may last longer, but if you drive as little as I do (13,000 miles in 16 months) this truck should last me forever, even if I only make it to 150, 000 miles... that's about 13 years of driving....I think that's a long enough time!

RE: homade power wire
Pro4x4 if you're going to make the argument that the performance should be what the manufacturer specs consider that performance is not the only thing the engineers have in mind when designing these engines. They must be able to build them cheaply enough that they aren't losing profits to manufacturing, they have strict emissions regulations they must pass. Mileage is also a consideration as is drivability for your average consumer. Personally I'm willing to sacrifice some drivability for more power if need be and I don't really care about emissions since they don't test that in my state. For the right amount of money you can get some ridiculous power out of your engine, but Dodge would go broke if they built them like that
