i have a 00 qc 4.7 i put a single 50 flowmaster on it one in two out. man does it sound good. but as soon as i left the mufflershop i could tell that i had lost the bottom end. i had made a few runs to 60 using the speedo and a handheld stopwatch. before i had the flowmaster installed i was running 8.6 seconds consistanly. after i was running10.2 consistantly. thats a serious loss of torque. evidently the 4.7 likes back preasure. on tue 4 nov 2003 214007 -0500 rescue41 bigredthecyberjunkie@hotmail.com wrote hello i have a 2003 dodge dakota clubcab with a 4.7l v8i have contacted my service manager about the typical upgrades including cold air intakes and so forth ive been okayed for this since mopar makes one basically a k&n but rebadged so im wondering if i add a cai will that alone and maybe a gibson dual exhaust system give me my beefy tone and bit more torque that ill want or anyone got any ideas cyberjunkie .

well ive since scrapped the cold air intake idea since i have found a dyno sheet and it will only give me 10-15 hp and a standard k&n air filter will give me 8-10 and much cheaper to play with im not swapping out exhaust due to too many ppl telling me that i would lose low end punch of the 4.7 its got some but not alot more highway punch that ive noticed . hello i have a 2003 dodge dakota clubcab with a 4.7l v8i have contacted my service manager about the typical upgrades including cold air intakes and so forth ive been okayed for this since mopar makes one basically a k&n but rebadged so im wondering if i add a cai will that alone and maybe a gibson dual exhaust system give me my beefy tone and bit more torque that ill want or anyone got any ideas cyberjunkie .
