Default New to Dodge

Just bought my first Dodge, an '07 Magnum R/T. I must say that after test driving over 20 cars, buying the Magnum was a no-brainer for me. It came down to a new '06 GTO or the Magnum and the looks of the Magnum is what won me over

I'm basically an old school hot rodder and know very little about fuel injection and OBD2, so I have a lot of catching up to do. Most of my experience is on carbuerated Chevy small blocks in Monzas and Vegas.

I've started looking at CAI, catbacks and full exhausts, and programmers/piggy back modules. With all the claims, it's confusing to say the least. I'll leave the internals of the engine alone for the time being, but that old yearning is creeping up on me...

welcome to DF... I used to be like you with the old school stuff, all it took was some reading of the manual to figure out what was going on, then there was no looking back.
