Dang pictures... I noticed a drop of maybe 50 degrees. It sounds a little more agressive, but it passed the wife-don't-like-noise-o-meter!

thx jim. does it resonate in cab while towing yer toyhauler uphill? you can remove the flashpaq b4 warranty work and they'll never know. the key count does recycle but i told my dealer i had dead batteries and had to pull them to recharge. ant elec interruption will reset key count cycle so this lil fib works. picked up about 3-4 mpg on the freeway and 136 hp in the performance mode.

Farmer, it is a little louder when pulling a grade, but not bad at all. Wow, 3-4 mpg is a strong selling point. I just passed a local gas station and diesel was 3.95 GRRRRRRRR.

ya should buy one jim,easy to install and at todays b.s. diesel prices it pays for itselfat about $18-20 per tank. easy to install and remove for stealership service. now, ya gotta drive like a grampa to get those increases, and it takes a few weeks to quit doin burnoffs, but at 68-70mph on freeway, 23-25 mpg is common, hand calculated.
