7. Exhaust system to let it breathe.
I knew i was forgetting something.. and was actually watching a video on powerstrokehelp.com about installing new system yesterday.
You hear both side of the debate of replace air intake and exhaust system does gain HP and some say NOT..
not an expert but it seem if the engine can breath easier it will run easier = more MPH (i hope)
if you have ever seen a OTR truck the intake on them dudes is HUGH and the filter is massive.
That's because OTR truck engines are in the upper hundreds of cubic inches (~1.5-2x the size of our pickup engines). They need to move a lot of air.
We have half a dozen trucks at work with the same Cummins 6.7 that goes into Rams...they have a big air intake and an air filter the size of a 10-quart bucket!
