If you don't roll into the throttle on the 6.4 it is such a tird! Is this going to get better? I only have 800 miles right now but come on.

What is the deal with the statement of the 1st turbo to "get everything moving", one turbo seemed to do the job better IMO. Am I missing a flash or something??

HELP!
Chrysler standard throttle setting is more aggressive than ford. You would need to compare actual 0-30 times to say the cummins was much more responsive. The throttle setting on ford will be made more aggressive with any performance tune. That change plus harder shifting makes the truck feel better. Things like an air intake are just sold to make the tuner money. Because these items are bundled with a tune everyone thinks they're great. Evaluated alone no one would buy these products. I now buy tuners for all my cars and trucks. But I'll never buy things like air intakes again. Any of these products that don't show a big horsepower gain is b.s. A turbo aded to a normally aspirated engine is my definition of a performance improvement product.
