Hey Everyone - I'm looking for a quick bit of advice:

I have an '07 1500 Quadcab with the 4.7 liter Magnum v-8.
I had Flowmaster true duals installed (sound awesome!), but now it's got a bit of a hiccup in the shift when I floor it from a dead-stop as it goes into 2nd gear. Now - with gas here at $3.40, I don't floor it too often, but I am sure that something's not right.

My question is this: Is a new air filter alone going to help me out? Or do I need to look into a new chip or module or something?

Thanks a bunch for any advice.

Cheers,
~R~

 

i dunno, but where are you located with the prices of gas as high as mine?

 

Try the cold air intake, you made the exhaust flow much faster and freeer but now you need to make it so it can bring in air as fast as its exhausting.

 

HighDuke1911 - I'm in the bay area.

HansonHVAC - Thanks - I'll look at the cold air.

 

up north. dnt know gas was high there too! wait, its cali. nevermind! lol. i hope your liking the new rig.

 

Yeah - gas is ridiculous right now. Even up as far north as Redding it's around $3.35. Just crazy.

Anyway - I Love my truck! Just over 3k miles on it. I've got the Big Horn package, so Sirius Radio, tow package, big tires and power everything. What an amazing truck.

I put on Westin Signature Series full-length side steps on, and it looks great. I also just ordered a K&N typhoon aircharger, so hopefully when I get that put on I won't have the wierd issue with shifting anymore.

 

Hey Guys!

So, I got the Cold Air put in (easier that I thought it'd be), but now I get a lot of noise. Please don't get me wrong, I KNOW that I should EXPECT a lot more noise - but I thought it would come only from under the hood. Now it sounds like there's a vacuum leak - but inside the cab. Only at a particular RPM/Speed I get this kinda whistle inside the cab. Almost sounds like it could be associated with the A/C.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Got the same thing here too, but only when I am WOT.

 

the sound you hear is the sound of your new K&N sucking in all that air, i got the same sound
