Default performance for my v-6

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knows of anything I can do to get some performance gains from my v-6 in my dodge 1500. also how to get rid of the dead peddel. I put a cold air intake on it already and im looking to take off the fan and put an electric fan. If any one has any ideas please let me know.

Default hey...

...you'll notice when you come into this subforum, there are many threads in it...that's because it's only set to show posts for the last day or so. on the bottom left (while in forum...but not IN a thread), change that last option to "the beginning" and it will show u ALL the threads. There are dozens of threads about modifying our trucks...so asking us "what to do for performance" is very vague.

my signature image is a taste of what can be done.

welcoem to the forum.

yea...give it a shot. there are quite a few threads on things people have done, including their feedback on various things they've done.

change "last day" to "the beginning" when you're at this page: https://dodgeforum.com/forum/v6-specific-topics-81/

So far I have eliminated the oem air box completely. I had a home-brew for years. Then decided to just put the filter directly on the TB. I installed the Power Wire. TMR mod (removing the torque management). Adjusted the TPS to a higher voltage. JET 180 T-Stat. Mobil 1 Synthetic. Flowmaster 40 SI/DO, dumped after axle.

Next:
Mark VIII E-Fan
Ported TB on order
Short Belt
Custom Tune
Headers
Cam
