I'm going to try and get my truck on a dyno this weekend...I need to find out . Most of the vids i've seen show a 21-22% loss on the rams. There's a vid of a 09 ram with a cutout putting down 322...many others from our years putting down around 270. You used a stang dyno didn't ya...they're good for tuning because of the pre-load but not so great in finding drivetrain loss.

Actually mine was done on a dynojet not a mustang dyno and if you go by the majority vote on here dynojets should be higher than a mustang dyno. Its sad but 30% loss is about right for stock numbers.

well needless to say the agrement was meet ....till it came down to signing papers im not dumb like most helpless auto shoppers and i looked over the numbers what was agreed apon was not what was on the papers so long story short (you guys knowing my short fuse) i got escorted of the lot. you really have to look at the numbers from the managers mouth ya we will give you 15,500 for your ram on paper it was more like 13k. *** 'um. if i had a chair neer by i would have bobby knighted that place was prety hot so i was escorted lol. no sweet ill just have to keep on modding to make myself feel better. now if anyone finds a mod that is a bolt on 2 more doors let me know. i think the past month or so i have been looking hard for a new rig . now i think screw it ill keep mine. they said mods dont mean **** to them but garinty it would be on the lot for more $ with mods over stock o well.
