I need fellow youtubers help. I want to get a MBRP 4 inch exhaust and a banks 4 inch power elbow. The elbow comes off the turbo where the MBRP would bolt up to, I want the elbow bacause instead of using the 3 to 4 inch down pipe from MBRP, I want a full 4 inch exhaust from the turbo back. In theory, less back pressure ect. please help people!!!
hey man. If you dont mind me asking... how happy are you with this truck? I have a 04 chevy 1500 thats very very nice but i think i need a 2500 and i was thinking about selling and buying a diesel like yours. Do you think if you were me you would sell or trade for a cummins 2500 like yours? thanks man.
@mk37mgteboy Thank you! Hands down the 5.9 is the best sounding diesel in consumer trucks. I love the engine noise from the 7.3, so loud and raw! So industrial sounding lol. Love it. All other diesel V8's just sound like choked gas motors.
can someone tell me how these cummins are on power stock like the older 1998's and shit. like can they roast the tires and accelerate good or would i need a programer to start off with?
the older 12 valves can be made to put out tremendous numbers. the 24 valve is just the 12 valve with a different head and fuel system and is equiped with electronics
nice truck none the less and idk who was on here givin thumbs down but shame on them nice truck btw very good sound and bein a 99 id be careful with that edge i have seen a couple vp44 trucks that were ran with that sucker turned up and when the lift pump got weak it killed the vp44 just a word of warning from a Cummins techuse it wisely and keep an eye on lift pump pressure other than that have fun and enjoy that beast
Thanks! I've taken care of the lift pump problem with a FASS fuel system. Still keep an eye on the pressures just to be safe but the FASS has really helped out.
yea not everbody thinks about that and i didnt remeber seein anything about it so i thought id pass along the info i believe these monsters should be enjoyed as they were meant to be but as with most things that can be modified not everyone goes about it the right way my dream is to own or co own a shop that teaches diesel perfomance sells and maintains the diesels we serviceany moron can put a chip in a truck but it take knowledge to build a performance diesel
I've had a good guy to go to as far as advice on these things. He just happens to run the first ever diesel powered race monster truck. Check out some of my favorited videos on here of my "work truck" its a 2000hp blown alcohol hemi powered monster. I've gotten to know the driver of the diesel truck very well and he's helped me out quite a bit when it comes to this stuff.
hell yea man im glad u had good advice most of the nay sayers is due to poor advice ur people who thought they knew and ill look into that im just glad to hear u made ur desions and made the right upgrades wish u luck on ur truck i know u have good folks at ur back i just hate to see folks jump off the deep end with em it costs alot of money to repair and replace parts on these trucks
@PredatorLK My ass smoke's more than that after a mexican dinner! I'm just fuckin with ya. That is a nice sounding truck. Look's good too for it's year. I see a few dodge owner's around here that don't take care of there rig. Rust along the bottom of the body and such. Such a shame. Did you straight pipe it, or is there a high flow muffler on?
@CSXtrackworker When this video was taken there was no chip or anything on the motor, it was bone stock. So that's why it did not smoke at all.
Thanks for the comment on how the truck looks. I try to keep all of my stuff clean. I take a lot of pride in it and work my tail off for everything I've got so I take care of it.
And in this video it has the 5" MBRP exhaust system with their muffler on it.
@PredatorLK Yeah, you can definately tell who take's care of there truck's. I would definately take pride in this truck if I owned it. Whether a truck smoke's or not mean's nothing to me. I'd rather hear the exhaust bark a mean chant. This truck definately does that!
@jonesd5o I just bought a 2000 Cummins, I want to get a programmer for it. What would you recommend and if all possible I would like to stay away from having to get bigger injectors. Im also worried about lift pump or Injection pump problems with a boost mod
@BowHunterAz08 well there where a couple years of the vp44 trucks that they dont make a programmer for cant remember of the top of my head but i have heard good things about mads smarty's programmers i wouldnt be worried about the injection pump with a boost mod cause its not really gonna make the injection pump work much harder except at lower engine speeds if using a boost fooler lift pump issues on vp44 trucks are a concern i recomend a gauge that reads from at least 0-15 psi
Hey Man, beautiful truck Ive got a 99 too. Im thinking of going to the 5 inch from the factory 3. Did you lose any low end torque or performance? Watd it feel like after the mod? Not sure if I should do 5 or 4 inches.
This exhaust has the 5 inch MBRP muffler on it. I used to have the stock 3" exhaust system straight piped and in my opinion it sounds MUCH better with the 5" system with the muffler. A much deeper tone than the 3" straight pipe but its still plenty loud.
Thnks! The truck was pretty much stock motor wise when I took this other than the exhaust. I've since added an Edge Juice with Attitude and some other stuff to turn it up a bit.
It has just over 186,000 miles on it. Haven't really had any problems with it yet other than normal maintence things. Just put a set of brakes on it and of course with these trucks once you start making some power the stock torque convertor won't like it. But other than that I've had good luck with the truck.
Nice sound. My sisters husband dodge has a 4" exhaust with a glasspack and that thing get loud when you get on it. His truck has 100hp injectors and a chip. His stock automatic is already slipping and is running on stock turbo. Makes lots of smoke though :)
Well on the block, there is a big '53' stamped into it. I guess you look on the block close to where it meets up with the oil pan under the injection pump.. If you go to google and type in ''53 block FAQ and Info'' there is a great web site that shows details on the block and how to find out if you have it.. They can explain it much better than I can lol.. It should be the first website, 'stamey' something or other. Hope this helped
Yeah, its got the 53 block. Didn't know anything about it until after I bought the truck. Haven't had any problems with it though and hopefully I won't.
Around 19 or so around town and I've gotten around 22 doing highway only. The thing that is hurting me the most on MPG's is the tires being just at 35" tall with a 3.54 gear. Planning on dropping down to at least a 4.10 if not more. 4.56's would give plenty of power but maybe a bit low for highway cruising. They make a 4.32 and I'm thinking of going to that to be in between the two.
I actually think it sounds better with the muffler on it. I had it straight piped with the stock exhaust and it has a lower tone with the muffler. And it is still plenty loud.
That truck is a clean burner, no smoke at all. I'm lookin at buying this old man's 98.5 4wd quad cab longbed cummins with 116k miles. Sweet truck and sounds good too
Yeah, video was taken when I had no chip on it. After I took this video I've put an Edge Juice with Attitude on the truck. It can blow smoke if you set it to on the bottom end or you can adjust it down on the bottom end to cut down on the smoke. Really happy with the chip so far. Plus, I've picked up mileage too!
Nope, its got a muffler on it that came with the MBRP kit. I think it actually sounds better than when I had it straight piped with the stock 3" exhaust.
It isn't too bad in the cab actually. I had a 3" straight pipe on it before this and its a lot better sounding in the cab than the straight pipe ever was.
any problms with losing low end torque, i always hear "dont run the big of pipe or ull loose low end torque" how has urs been. Sounds awsome too
