how could i get more horsepower out of my 08 ram with 3.7L V6?

 

You'll have to post your thread in the right section to find out.

 

bigger engine haha

 

Welcome to DF. First, before anything else, please read this.

The 3.7L V6 was built for an attempt at economy, not power. It can be helped a little, but it won't ever do what a 4.7L V8 or larger can do.

I will move this to the 3rd gen section for you.

 

There may be a tuner coming, some guys in the dakota section were working on it, sullysdetailing I think was his screen name. Hemifever tuned my 3.7 and got some good gains w/ SCT but I don't think it supports 08's. You could do an efan, shorty headers, CAI, replace the factory y-pipe and muffler w/ magnaflow. I've done all that on mine and it helped.

 

Ah, you were one of the Rams he told me about. I got him to do the 3.7 in my wife's Liberty.

 

Yea, I think he did mine shortly after you. I think I saw a post of yours on ********* and started bugging him about trying to tune mine. Eventually SCT got everything straight and we got it done, w/ premium I gained 10-15 hp and tq pretty much across the board. Although w/ gas prices what they are I've gone back to 87 to save some dough.

 

You might want to consider gears for the mechanical advantage cause I'm sure that 3.7 is working hard to move that heavy truck.

 

Should've shelled out the extra $$ for a Hemi. The extra charge should not have cost that much more in the monthly payments.

 

i have a 6 speed manual tranny. i was told it was a strong one. is that what u meant by considering gears for mechanical advantage?
