It's absolutely insane! When I got my truck, I was looking at the build sheets, and saw that this one had 3.92s. That alone was the hands down deal maker for me.

So 3 pages and no one really knows why the 1500 Ram 5.7 is rated at 395 HP while the Durango's 5.7 is rated at 360 HP?

the intake manifold is a better design
this allows different tunes in the pcm from the factory thus giving increased hp!

$1900 bucks for an intake manifold... Hahahahaha LMAO haha.. That's the most expensive 30 hp on the planet. With the runner size alone you would probably lose a crap load of TQ on the bottom end for more hp up top in the rpm range. That what makes the stock rams intake manifold so much better. Switches from long narrow runners for low end TQ to short fat runners for high rpm hp.
