I'll start a post for you Heather down in the performance area on the Jeep manifolds,but you'll have to take it from there:smileup:.
I know a couple guys are running in the low to mid 12's using the stock SRT manifolds,but that's about all i know.
Do you do much towing.
Realistically on a dyno there might be 10-12 horsepower differance between the shorties and long tubes at higher rpm.
The shorties flow good up in the higher rpm ranges,but are known for losing a bit of bottem end torque compared to long tubes,so if you do any towing that's something to keep in mind.

I'm still in Jamaica for a few more days, and I'm sure my wife isn't happy that I'm on the forum, but c'est la vie.
The only Calgary-local hemi tuner that's half-way decent is the guys at Davenport but be prepared to fork over a second-born. The best guy we've found in Alberta is out of Stoney Plain at CCMR mobile dyno. Several guys from the ALX use him and he brings his dyno down south a few times a year or he has it setup in his shop with reasonable rates. http://www.ccmrmobiledyno.com/
Heather, with the long tube headers, if you're not willing to drop $1700 on the ARH/Stainless Works then look at just the OBX headers and get them ceramic coated to reduce the under hood temps. IF you're looking for a bit more economy then the JBA shorties are a good price, but you'd have better value out of a set of used GCSRT8 headers, but I believe you need a custom midpipe, cats are optional then. IF you don't ever want to touch your headers again, regardless of type, then use the Mopar headers gasket and a set of Stage 8 locking header bolts, you'll never touch them again as they can't loosen up. Torque them, heat cycle the headers a few time, retorque and install the locking wings, done.

Hello sir, what year, I have a ram single cab 2016, and have access to 2012 srt jeep manifolds..just purchased for dirt cheap. These fit to heads for sure...
I notice with my 1500 the radio is always trying to update the phone book when it's really cold outside. I always cycle it through 2 remote starts before I have to go out anywhere
I went to start mine friday night and it was dead. The cold is not making it very happy at all. The ipod also wont work when it's cold, not sure if that's the ipod or the stereo.
It's the deck, my iPhone wouldn't connect. It's a cold flaw with the radios, I had sat radio, but when I went to my iPhone the sound went off....20mins of driving with no music
Apparently my truck is saying screw this to the cold. Battery is toast, and I went to set my trinity to factory tune so I could take the truck in to the dealer and the trinity can't set the factory tune and gives error "PCM error unlock for reflash (-34)" FML....
Oh and check engine light is on and throwing about 15 codes... wow truck... wow
When it's too friggin cold my Nav won't load! I think because the computer is under the rear seat if I'm not mistaken it never gets warm down there. Could be wrong. Can't drive without the winter front on either as the Vararam takes in way too much cold air!! Friggin winter!!!! Brand new bike sitting in garage with 3 km on it and can't even think of ridin it!!!
Haha that's why I cover my bike in the winter. Then I don't have to look at it and cry
If my truck didn't get so much north wind exposure it probably wouldn't be so bad. But my truck usually becomes a drift when it snows because of that damn north wind. The joys of a new community with no trees and an empty development field to the north of us I guess.
Quick question... I've been involved in a thread about the anti-slip and whether or not to get it. When I purchased my truck my salesman suggested that it wasn't necessary (I don't plan on towing...). But in reading some comments from other owners the general consensus seems to be that it's a must have. Especially in the snow.
Can anyone point me in the right direction on a good aftermarket LSD and a place where I could get it installed in Calgary? Thanks

You'll be looking at a couple grand hit Jacks.
If you're a 4X4 it's not really needed,it's nice to have,but unless you're getting stuck every second day,you might want to save you're money.
I drive a 2wd GM company wheel vehicle with no LSD all year round with no problems.
It's up to you whether you feel you need LSD,but if it was me,i'd save my money.
This has been one of the worst winters we've had in years,for ice and snow on the streets,if you haven't been stuck this winter,odds are you won't get stuck in our more normal winters
Remember you're getting info from the internet guru's,so take most of their suggestions with a grain of salt.
Drew at Modern Motors is a good guy to talk to #403-253-0664
Shit Nufy, glad yer ok, should have shot me a pm I'd have come and got ya. Which dealer is it at?? I have some pull at Big4, they are super great and always try to source and expedite parts for me and my fleet trucks even on back order,
Mine stays locked thank goodness. The new truck has auto tail lock.
On a side note. I have a harness and auto lock set up for ram tailgates. Not sure what else is needed but if anyone wants to have an auto locking tailgate (it locks. When you lock your doors) pm me
That sucks Travis. I keep mine locked. Too many crackheads near my work parking lot. They see t gates as an easy buck.
Got my truck reflashed today, gotta get my trinity unlocked now. Pain in the ass that's for sure and cost me $90. Forgot the difference the fuel milage tune made though. My drive in to work the milage was at 14.3l/100 and on the way home it was 15.6l/100 lol.
