- ivbinconnedExplorer IIThanks. Love the truck. Much better build than the 06.
- ScottGNomadAt those settings, you will get nothing from another intake and filter. The stock setup is very good and can support a lot more HP.
Unless your filter minder is getting sucked down, you dont need more. - ivbinconnedExplorer IIIt is chipped with EFI live with tranny tune. Lowest setting 30 hp. Setting #2 is for towing and is 60 over stock. Those two first setting is where I'll be running.

Unless you are going for lots of power above stock keep the stock filter. At stock power you will get no measurable benefit from an after market system except a lighter wallet. With the stock system you also won't run the risk of dusting your engine.
Lots of info on the cummins forum.

Lots of info on the cummins forum. - Me_AgainExplorer IIIThe New Gen Rams have a cold air intake setup that normally gets cool air vs engine compartment heated air. Any change should maintain the cool air.
- wskiExplorerDiesels are nothing more then suckers and blowers. Sounds like you have the blowing part down, now to increase the sucking part. Your diesel engine will love you if you increase the air flow.
- donn0128Explorer IIMotors are nothing but giant air pumps. Maximum benefit demands more air in to allow everything to work as designed.
