You knew it was coming... time to wake this HEMI up!!

[@chrispryor9721]

If I’m not mistaken you can also turn off traction control with that unit

[@bikingwithryan5968]

I wanna see you roast them on some dry tar from a dead stop 👍

[@soldier09r]

Tell me you guys have something for a 2020 Ram Power Wagon 6.4 that does the same thing! Then take my money 💰😂

[@vickaminski]

@@chrispryor9721 you can turn off traction control on mine with a button and a setting too.

[@chrispryor9721]

@@vickaminski but it resets when you turn the truck off and it also turns off the abs cause that’s what the nanny is controlled by. It’s the stupidest thing ever the idiot who put that on the trucks should be punched. You cannot take an off-ramp or on-ramp without the truck spazzing out

[@bseery]

"Traction control off" -- usually the last words before a Mustang goes into a crowd or a Corvette goes into a ditch.

[@alwaysdriven]

If you don't know how to drive any car will end up in the crowd or ditch 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@Th3mast3r69]

love your videos bud. I have the same truck and has been giving me the exhaust leak problem twice within one month and was thinking I made a mistake buying it. your videos made me feel a lot better about it and I think Ill keep it. for a while longer. Thanks!

[@rudyguajardo8968]

I am lovin my B2 Fabrication aggressive sound exhaust with resonator delete. Sounds deep and mean with the S&B cold air intake.

[@bikingwithryan5968]

We need a another video of this!

[@ashleywilson5312]

I have the carven cat back dial stainless. It is freaking awesome. Had it for almost 3 years now

[@matthewjones7935]

I can't wait to do my intake and pcm on my ram. I have the carven muffler on mine with everything else stock on exhaust. I'm very happen with the sound. It's deep, not raspy at all, and doesn't drone too bad.

[@Ybshy]

IMO the Carven competitor series catback exhaust set up is just as good as a borla exhaust but to each his own, videos don’t really do justice as far as exhaust notes, but when I heard another Ram owner with his Carven exhaust, I pulled the trigger on investing on the same setup, I’m completely satisfied, they now have another muffler called the TR so it’s something you might consider, it’s whatever tickles your ear

[@stardocker]

I put a Quick time performance electronic cut out. Honestly the sound and option to go back and forth from factory to all out is worth the price.

[@khyoon14]

First mod I did was a Diablo sport i3 tune with pcm swap on the 2019. Best mod. Without it all other mods don’t yield much

[@vinniecorleone62]

I enjoyed your informative video as well as your impressions! I like your candid videos regarding your Ram & experience with it over time. I liked your vid & subbed, looking forward to going through your content as well as watching future content my friend. I wanted to ask you if by installing this tuner will it violate your factory Ram warranty?

[@shadowdemon5730]

I have Borla S-Type on my ‘21 Ram 1500 and it is exquisite.

[@braedencollins6989]

I got a borla s type and S&B intake sounds amazing

[@nickgrant42]

Great videos!

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Thanks, Nick! Appreciate the support!

[@davidboydston5326]

Dude I just put the borla attack exhaust on my 2020 ram and it's sounds amazing

[@tenase1987]

Carven Exhaust is the best in my opinion. You can do it your self. Also get rid of the little resonators in the back.

[@alwaysdriven]

I got a cold air intake. But the only time i feel a lil something extra on the pedal is winter time. The air is actually cold all around the engine bay and it works, the truck is a tiny bit quicker when you give her

[@ammogiant824]

Have you herd the Kooks exhaust? All I can say is wild.

[@lawrencejoy9346]

Does this install do away with the MDS situation, never mind asked question to soon lol, great video, love the step by step walk through

[@vinniecorleone62]

I installed a new Flowmaster Super-10 performance muffler replacing just the main factory muffler & for now left the two rear dual resonators & got a fantastic raw Hemi sound yet fairly quiet for my sleeping neighbors when I leave at 3:30am for work. Down the road I might have those resonators removed for the full blown street racer sound like my 2008 Ram work truck had.

[@livefootagetube]

So the resonator has nothing to do with catalytic converter

[@vinniecorleone62]

@livefootagetube No, I would never touch the cats, everything else is behind the cats with resonators at the very rear of the exhaust pipes.

[@jrw31657]

Will you be doing a MPG improvement video?

[@OneTastyPickle]

I love my Mopar exhaust. No drone. Not too loud. Sounds mean. And I'm a sucker for OEM parts. But I'm not a power chaser. This Ram is my daily.

[@AestheticChino]

Daily a race truck wont hurt no one hahaha

[@Kyle-xt8ip]

I laughed when you were turning up the throttle response. I have the Diablo Tuner and unlocked pcm on my wife's jeep srt. We turned off the mds and ran the 93 octane tune. The 6.4l is pretty well maxed out from the factory so it didn't do much but it will be great to have the tuner when our warranty is up and we put headers on it.

[@TruckCentral]

Headers are in this truck’s future too. Wish it had a 6.4 but this 5.7 will do!

[@Kyle-xt8ip]

@@TruckCentral that is going to be sweet. Those black ram limited trucks like you have are really nice. I'm glad to see they hold up so well. I can't wait to trade up to get one. I'm hanging on to my 2017 until we get the jeep paid off. Then I'm going for a fifth gen similar to yours. Thanks for taking the time to make this series.

[@Hellhound501]

Borla Atak exhaust is the only way to go. I looked at Flowmaster and a few others. Borla was my first mod and it made the truck sound like a Charger/Challenger exhaust. Just installed the S&B intake and holy crap! It sounds completely different now and I love it! Taking it to the track this weekend for a big Mopar event.

[@MrJustinWheeler]

That’s awesome! Did you install the exhaust yourself? Good luck at the track.

[@Hellhound501]

@@MrJustinWheeler yes. Took about an hour and a half. Hardest part was getting the old exhaust off. I cut the driver side right at the axle. I set the suspension to off-road 2 and did everything on the ground. Put the truck on a lift and you could probably do it all in an hour.

[@MrJustinWheeler]

@@Hellhound501 good to know. Did you replace the exhaust manifolds as well? One concern I have is dealing with my gooseneck hitch. The installers said it was a tight fit with the exhaust.

[@Hellhound501]

@@MrJustinWheeler that's going to be next thing I do. Think I've made my mind up on the kooks long tube with y pipe

[@alexwhitley5195]

That's what I have on mine. Ruins it for long trips, but dear lord I love it.

[@theoutlawjoseywales8711]

Great video! Which Diablo model did you buy?

[@wolfgar187]

Your videos are great.Question what port did you plug the diablo display into?

[@DS-TRUCKS]

Cool stuff

Ecoboost with a tune would be cool too… just saying

[@jakeperry9384]

Borla ATAK. Really hear that Hemi come alive.

[@RAM-KINGOFTRUCKS]

Now you got me convinced on that tune for my Ram..have the S&B and a Borla Catback already and the tune should make me go to jail..🤣❤

[@Hayden_gearheart]

Love the sound of the hemi I just ordered my tune for my hemi hope my tires spin too

[@MrJustinWheeler]

I am certain they will. Good luck!

[@Captain_Brown_Beard]

my 2019 crew cab spins tires from dead stop without a tune or pedal commander, but I have the 3.92 gear ratio

[@AestheticChino]

Youll be hoping they dont traction is a problem after the tune and some bolts on💪👍 love/hate relationship

[@alwaysdriven]

​@@Captain_Brown_Beardya same. 3.92 spins all the time 😅

[@feraltrafficcone4483]

I thought the rain was your truck running lmao

[@killersmoke007]

Carven catback is a good exhaust. Sounds good on my 2019 Ram

[@danielcrumbley5393]

I loved my carven on my 13 ram. I just put AWE cat back on and it sounds mean also

[@Ybshy]

I agree I got the Carven competitor series with the 5” tips, it just sounds mean in a good way

[@RobCabreraCh]

Still waiting on delivery of my new RAM 1500. I won't do much to it for the first couple of years, but knowing myself, I'm going down this route sooner or later. I want to transform it into a full on baja runner!

[@seventhcrow211]

I would recommend corsa exhaust system.

100% Magnaflow 14" race muffler.

[@terryreedy107]

I have done a lot of research, seems the HP tuner is the way to go.

[@coreyhennessy6320]

If you throw some headers on it will really make the truck come alive.... Goodluck... down the rabbit hole you go.

[@MrJustinWheeler]

Yep, I feel like there are headers and exhaust in my future. 🤣

[@Kyle-xt8ip]

My buddy at work has corsa on his 5th gen sport night editing ram and it sounds spectacular. I am about to put a flowmaster 40 muffler on my 2017 ram. It should sound sweet. We have borla atak on my wife's jeep srt and it also sounds spectacular.

[@TruckCentral]

Check out the super 44 before buying the 40. Same price, slightly different sound.

[@dwoods4251]

I had 40 on my Dakota Rt and it gave me a headache if I drove an hour lol

[@glogic110]

Corsa extreme all the way!

[@Tdub66]

4WH is the way to go in the rain no spinning just vroom

[@7thkev519]

I think the new exhaust system AWE will sound better than the arak I’ve already seen a KZbinr compared he’s previous exhaust borla atak to he’s new AWE exhaust and the new exhaust sounds better. I’d say get the AWE OFG exhaust it’s new and it sounds great.

[@danielcrumbley5393]

I just put the AWE on mine and it sounds mean

[@raymondremillard7627]

Headers should be next.

[@JohnSmith-ev1sm]

Please turn off the throttle booster and retest with 87 tune, you changed 2+ things at one time and it's hard to identify what caused the change you are seeing. A simple pedal booster from sprint/banks can make your truck feel much faster all without using an intake or other tune. What I'm interested in, is do you notice any thing just running stock pedal with 87 tune.

[@soldier09r]

I wish the Hemi 6.4 had this option lol

[@vickaminski]

My 2019 Limited I'm debating if i should return lease or buy it out with 20k miles

[@christopherwilson7698]

I’m pretty sure the gods of thunder added 5hp to that tune. 🌩🧐😂

Supposably 30 hp

[@AestheticChino]

Long tube headers 3 inch y pipe and electronic cut off best sound ive heard off my ram you get the hemi phart and back fire noise at high rpms! And u can make it stock quite with a touch of a button! Stock silencer still cause california hates loud v8's

Do we need the security bypass module?

[@terryreedy107]

How does this compare with an inline?

[@victorle5088]

The cold air intake and the PCM replaced would it void the factory warranty since my truck is still under warranty?

[@khyoon14]

Yes.

[@AestheticChino]

Yes ur better off buying anothe ecu that way u can just put the stock one back in case u need to deal with warranty

[@c.juneau410]

Well doing this avoid my extended warranty?

[@trailslug893]

Is this kit no longer available?

[@Veyronn]

Carven is exhaust is good. it made my ram faster tho

[@coleschwausch546]

Did the 0-60 change at all?

[@vickaminski]

What's the purpose of the security bypass? You have to replace stock computer?

[@AestheticChino]

Unlock it so u can go faster than the goaverned speed

[@jstrout626]

Do the borla atak if you want to make it sound like a real v8 should go with the borla touring if you just want to make it a little better 🤌

[@MrJustinWheeler]

If I decide to upgrade the exhaust, it’ll definitely be the ATAK.
