Installed the Air Raid JR MIT and filter today. Tomorrow will be a muffler delete then hopefully this weekend a de-badge.

Got a picture of it installed? How does it sound exterior and interior wise? Notice any gains?

I know its too soon to know right now, but I'm curious to know how much the lift alters you MPG's.

Probably not a lot. My AT4 gets about 2-3 mpg less than my '20 RST 3.0 got. Granted, my AT4 has the 265/60/20 tires on it and my '20 RST had the 18" wheels and 31" tires.

Havent noticed yet if there are any gains from the intake. You can hear it if you get down on it. Sounds nice to me. I had the muffler delete done today. So overall everything sounds pretty nice. Depending on weather etc, the badges will be removed this weekend.

I know that on trips from my home in North East Texas to College Station I averaged 25-27 mpg. Dependent on traffic and how big of a hurry I was in. Included in these measurements was my around town driving in CSTAT. I'm going to use those trips as a baseline and report back after I make two or three of them. With Football season over for my Aggies this could take awhile. I've been looking at different tires to exchange with the stock tires. I have a hunch that tire weight has a bigger impact than Aerodynamics on MPG. I've run the Wrangler SR-A's on my 2014. Hated them. I've also run the Cooper Zeon's on my 2007. Loved those tires. But I think my Mileage suffered.

I wont see that type of mileage in mine as it does not have DFM. Not that I am complaining. I turned AFM off in previous vehicles. I will say though, right now, the estimate given by the DIC is at 19.2 and its usually around 18.5. Its about to be the weekend though and only driving around town instead of back and forth to work so thats definitely going down lol.

Here is what the exhaust sounds like with muffler deleted and two of the screens covered on both sides. Seems to have a rise and fall with the RPM but not sure if that's just normal. This is the first time I have remote started this truck.

Tailgate and rear corners de-badged, minus the GMC. I like that one there. Ill have to get the Sierra that is on the fenders another time. Battery died in the drill. So I guess in two weeks when its time for her bath again Ill get both of those.

25-27 mpg definitely isn't accurate for a gasser. That's gotta be for a baby Dmax. Best 50 mile average I got from my 6.2 was 23.9, and many have stated the real world numbers indicate the 6.2 gets slightly better mpg than the 5.3.

I would think the 6.2 should. Even though its a larger engine, the power to weight ratio would help it not struggle so much to move.

Added black Wheelskins. Wasn’t sure at first but I like them. Impressed with the fit. Centers came from wheelskins. No bow tie, just smooth.

Sorry for bad pics. Had to take them in garage since it’s always dark outside nowadays when I’m not at work. Ignore the cluttered garage for now. And the three boxes are an IKEA couch Christmas present.
