ALSO,
I'm looking at the Aero 4040, and it says it comes in 4", the piping from my turbo back is a 5", can I get the Aero in a 5"? Because I wanted 5" piping with a 6" tip for my exhaust.
Based on everything that I've learned here, I wouldn't recomend the 5" exhaust UNLESS you've modded the $**T outta your Ram. It's only gonna make things worse instead of better. I'd stick with the 4" all the way back.

Either that, or give him a call. He's cool, he'll tell you if it'll work.

Kingdog got one like that and it mounts at the top of the windshield somewere near his mirror. I don't have a pic of it, hopefully he'll be on again soon. Keep your eye out for him. He loves it !!

I'm kinda doing things bass-ackwards.
I started with the K&N, then the Aero, the Mag-tec pans, the FASS, and NOW I'm starting to think about gauges. I think I'm just going to go with the fuel pressure, egt, and boost gauges. I'm looking at those Isopro ( sp ) gauges. For the whole she-bang it'll be a little over 300 bucks. Sound good?

I'd LOOOOVE to get a set up like Demons ( Cobolts ), however I don't have that kinda cash lying around like he does.
With the stuff you've done so far the gauges aren't really a must, when you really need them is when you start doing injectors and chips. If the gauges are going to cost you 300 you could just get one of the chips that has the gauges already built in. I know the attitude will show 4 things at a time, you could do EGT, boost, fuel pressure and tranny temp, or just set it to warn you if any of those things go out of limits and look at other things. When I picked mine up I got it for 650, so really you are spending 350 for the chip and 300 for the gauges.
