If you don't have a sniffer test in your area then yea...it's possible. You'll have to tune out the rear o2's but I dunno if the current handhelds on the market can do it...the predator will be able to but it's not released yet. I had my rear o2's deleted in my old car and it passed California emissions so you shouldn't have a problem in your state. And there's always a dyno tune..

Thinking the same way trax, but would also like to swap out the Water Pump as well for a Electric one......Figure that you should get at least 20 more RHP out of our units if you replace the fan and the water pump.........I know they make ones for the GM(Yuckers) engine, but have not been able to locate a Electric Water Pump for the 5.7 Hemi yet.

Link to a Flex-o-lite fan that should work, but the price is high and I am still looking for a Canadian source http://www.airram.com/product.php?ca...6&productid=18
