235's?!?!? that's TEENY :eek: Is there no easy adjustment for Doge speedo's? I know for the 1994-1997 PSD's you can adjust it yourself quite easily.


Why adjust?? drive more record less. not such a bad idea. :greg: 100k is better than 110k right? Plus I feel better when speedo says 75 even though I know I'm really doing closer to 85... :rofl: ;)

exhaust is expensive, but the k&n filter is 50 bucks for the biggest one you can buy at your local auto parts store. You just have to adapt it yourself. That will give you power and better mileage. Of course it works best combined with exhaust!

Ive herd nothing but bad things on k&n filters Buy a good filter and I bought a 4" turbo back kit for 300 its not SS but Im not running a show truck

I just bought a 1999 Dodge 2500, 24v, turbo diesel. My question is how can I get better gas milege out of it. It has 4in exhaust, afe intake and a biger turbo. It doset have a chip and we dont know about the injectors. the competer thing says its geting 14.9mpg. any ideas???

I have a 2000 cummins I was getting 15. I put a van aaken transfer pump module in and I am getting 19 now. I get 15 towing 12000 lbs. I don't have an intake or exhaust yet. If I drive careful I get 20-21. for what it's worth.
