Maine coons I think those are floppy cats when held, am I wrong? Is it wrong to like cats? They are smarter than dogs LOL. I just like how they are so smart, except how my cat knows how to open cub boards and closets. I had to child proof my stuff for a cat. Little bastard meows after infiltrating my cub boards. Cute but angering.

Maine Coons aren't particularly floppy, but there is a breed that is like that, I can't remember the name. Coons run BIG though, they are called the "Gentle Giants" of the cat world. Very laid-back, very affectionate, very tolerant, it's common for them to be 15-20 pounds or so. When people see Chester, a lot of them ask if he's a bobcat. He also likes to get into the cabinets and hides there to ambush me when I open them. The important ones I had to put childproof latches on to keep him out.

Well since this is random, how much intake noise difference will an Airaid MIT make? Interested since I'm getting one eventually...

 

Mine made quite a difference in noise levels. Not overbearing but when you get on it you know it.

Im getting better yay. I had my first meal in 2 days

@MikeNH: that's good, I was hoping for a little more engine sound. Hoping to get some more driving with my Scanguage to see if the MIT will drop intake air temp because it doesn't have chambers... Just for fun

 

And glad to hear it Chris!

Your temp is read at the air box at the MAF. On the highway my IAT's are at ambient temp

Best way I can describe it is if you ever had a carb'd car and you flipped over the air cleaner lid so you'd get that howl when you punched it and the secondaries opened up. Sounds like that.

Black Bear got solid results on a 900 series. No reason the 800s won't see good gains too. Not like exhaust systems offer any real gains yet they're still very popular (I have one myself :D).

 

 

Plus it sounds faster. :lol:

I didnt have issues with it before I was tuned and my friend is not tuned and has no issues

I don't mean issues I just heard there's no gain

    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
