In my 98 ram 5.9 auto put it in and noticed a difference but not a hold on holy cow feel
that kinda diff. did feel more responsive and
feel more mid range power but not a whole heck of a lot. now next tues. I go to get it flashed in at the local dodge dealer,after that will there be any difference from now?
dont get me wrong im happy with any gains I
get but was expecting a little more I guess.

The dealer can't flash a MP performance computor & do you have a better cat back exhaust on?? If not, that will make a big differance - Also DO NOT tow with a performance installed.

He means the dealer has to flash the vin in the computer. You need to drive it for a while the computer need about 200 miles to learn everything. then it should make a big differents.

Give it a week. Do some WOTs. Puter needs to learn.

Also have a 98 5.9. I want to put a MP, too but am worried. Why can't you tow with this 'puter installed? I tow a boat during summer. Seems like you'd want the extra power for towing!?
