Yep, this is another Mod that doesn't look like much, but Adds a Nice Kick in the Truck.

It's like the Turbo is on an On/Off Switch now. It's Bad, but inna good way.

I can't go past 1/2 Throttle now or I'm Spinning the 24's. I can Break them Loose at 50mph now.

Install was really easy. Again, like the IC Tube, it took Longer getting the OEM one Off, than it took Finishing the Install with the New stuff.

Only I don't really like, is the Intake System isn't as Solidly Held anymore, as it is with the Solid OEM Elbow. The AFE one uses a Silicone Coupler between 2 Joints, which makes the Intake Wiggle around a lil bit now. It shouldn't be a problem though.

Turbo Whistle seems Louder too.

~THERE IS ABOUT A 24GA WIRE THAT IS BEHIND THE MOUTHPIECE. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN REMOVING / RE-INSTALLING THE PIECE SO YOU DON'T RIP THE WIRE. IT LOOKS VERY FRAGILE AND EXPENSIVE.~

So all-in-all, yep, this is another Mod that should be done. :thumbsup:

Here it is, they should be In-Stock at all Places now: http://www.xtremediesel.com/afepowerbladerunnerturboinlettube46-60039.aspx

Stop the madness):h. Christmas is coming up, I'll never save up enough at this rate. Can't wait to get that IC pipe in and on. I'll let ya know my thoughts on it when it shows up! This stuff is worse than crack!
 
My buddy put the blade runner on his Dodge. He said he felt nothing. But, it is a Dodge.

I dunno, I know I could def. give it more than 1/2 Throttle before I put this on.

But now, I came Out of a Road I always take when I'm on a Test Drive, and when I Slowly Layed on the Throttle, I thought it was the famous Turbo Squeal I was Hearing, but it was my Tires, and my Rear-End was Swingin.
 
Here's some Install Pics:

Installed one on my 06 lly and love it. My stock plastic broke or cacked at the seam and mas letting unfiltered air in ! I wanted metal this time , just wish it didn't have the resonator and PCV holes in it, and was all one piece. The original was designed for LLY intake replacement and they just added another piece of pipe and coupler. Still better than plastic stock one IMHO.
