I don't mean to prod- but you say you have no idea what it is but you want to buy it just doesn't make any sense. Research, research, research!

Please - allow me, sir, as a small measure of recompense ...

Hence, I was actually inquiring if anyone on the site had any actual experience with them on a 4.2 L, specifically.

I know my buddy installed one on his 07 Ram POS and it helped with the throttle response significantly. I cannot, unfortunately, independently corroborate whether or not that was, in point of fact, accurate - he may just enjoy being a ****** at my expense, as buddies are wont to do.

In summary, I did not know what to do and came here seeking some factual data. Instead, I found a pack of mean, vindictive vitriolic ne'er do wells, bent upon hazing a completely innocent n00b.


Thank-you for being such a good sport. Enjoy that $100 you just saved!

10-4 on that one. If'n the racket is all you're after, then duct tape a few of those party favor whistle thingies into your grill. I doubt you'll see much of a performance gain, but they make a HELL of a racket!
