Very nice, especially for a 4x4 ( heavy )! Now go get the SUB 15 second run.

What are your mods?

TJ

Nice runs- Great for a 4x.
What size tires you running?

265/70r17 tires.

mods:
4.56 gears
superchips flashpaq
exhaust cut-out behind cats
airraid mit
hedman short headers

my best time before was a 15.34 with a hypertech programmer, sold that got 4.56 gears & the superchips.

That's crazy, he's running 9.4's at 72 mph i'm still hittin 10 flats at 73 mph in the 8th, stupid peg leg

Your 1/8 times are just a little slower than mine, not bad at all for a big ole truck, them 4:56s had you pulling hard down low.

15.0,not bad for a dodge,if you had a chevy this is more like what you could expect.

Notice the MPH?that tells you he is making some decent HP out of that little engine,not bad starting with only 285HP not 345.

Gonzo give it up, look at the paragraph of that chevy's mods. He was 5100lbs, I am at 5050lbs race weight in my 4x2, running two 10's slower with way less mods. And you should know this by now with all your trolling, without cracking the computer our mods don't do a heck of a lot. ;)

RCSB 4x4 VS the same,thats fair,I would compare yours to this RCSB 2x4

Geez Gonzo,
give it up.... look at that list of mods.... does everyone you post up with have, pcm cracked tune, headers w/full ecxhaust, cam, converter..... yada yada????
at least post up apples to apples...
but ya know I could give a crap about stock vs stock and all that :turd: start holding your breath, that is about all the time you got left, then it will be I have this truck and it runs this fast and it won't matter WHO makes it!
I gotta question for ya.... what will it take for the Hemi crowd to EARN your respect????? or are you just a Chevy diehard that can only see a bowtie and everything else is :turd: ??? If you are of the later I am going to start ignoring your crap because I will know what you are.

TJ

This is the DODGE section of the site Gonzo, you don't see me going into the chevy section posting shit. You are trolling....

Btw your link doesn't work.

posting shit? did i say anything not true?

what will it take for the Hemi crowd to EARN your respect?????
who cares :eyes:
For the most part I really like this site. Nice friendly competition and I can't wait to hit Commerce with some of the guys- but there are a few here that I could care less what they have to say- talk about blind brand loyalty.

Gonzo, comparing any truck to another brand of truck is comparing apples to bananna's. Your trying to point out how slow dodge ram's with hemi's are by saying a hemi ram with a couple bolt on's is slow compared this chevy with well over a dozen mods including some internal stuff like a cam. Fair enough a lightly modded hemi is going to be slower then a resonably modded chevy, yet that same chevy doesn't look so fast when you compare it to my time with my select few bolt on's.

You flame the hemi's 345 hp, and why a little 285 5.3L can keep up, this is why I compared a rcsb 4x4 chevy to a 4x2 ram, because they weigh the same, do you understand that the ram is several 400-500lb's heavier then an equally equiped chevy?

It's no different then people slagging the new F-150 with the 5.4L, sure they are slow, why, because they are freaking heavy, they have dam near 900lbs more weight then a chevy, and still a good 400lb's over a ram.

Eh I am just wasting words, your too blinded by your love for the bowtie. ;)

my truck is heavier and taller (less aerodynamic).

I dont see how you can say its not a fair to compare a say a quad cab 2x4 vs a xcab Gm 2x4 or both RCSB 2x4s? Talk about weight advantages remember the road&track artical SBRC hemi VS SS silverado?Ya the silverado 1/10th quicker big deal the ram weight 500LBs less.You know what 500LBs would have done to that ET dont you?

Forsure, I personally think that test wasn't fair, should of had a extended cab 4x4 hemi. Btw a friends 04 QC 4x4 hemi with the Superchips programmer, nothing more ran a 15.1 the same night I pulled off my 14.1. Before the programmer he was in the 15.3 range. Still slower then the SS, but not the land slide victory most people make it out to be. ;)

I just don't like people doggin the hemi without all the facts. It's got the power, it just has a lot more weight to push, and thats why a 5.3L can keep up with a hemi.

Gonzo...will you try to find a timeslip from a rc/sb 2wd 5.3 with only a cold air intake, headers, open exhaust, and programmer...NOT custom tune, but programmer...aka superchips, hypertech, diablo sport. This is all it takes a hemi to run 13's even at 4900#. No cam, no high stall convertor, no custom tune...none of that. The guys slip you posted earlier had all of the above mods plus some, and still only ran .1 quicker than my hemi on stock 245/70/17 tires, stock 3.92 gears, and no weight reduction. And I still pulled 3mph quicker which says that I am making more power, but having a hard time putting that power to the ground on stock tires.

Guys! So far you're all keeping it civil and please continue to. Gonzo, I know you like to stir the pot and you've taken a few jabs at me and my Hemi Ram. Don't get to carried away though, they are correct, this is the Dodge section. We are all members of one multi truck forum here but still, if you don't have anything nice to say about the other brands, stay in the GM section.

Ya,Im the guy that offered to install your converter no charge just get it here 2 hrs on my rack and its done,but it didnt pencil the distance you would have had to drive.Jim remembers.Seems the conversations/discussions were going along civil and like a light switch someone got pissy and Im the bastard.

I didn't say you were "the bastard", those are your words. Don't over react! I said keep it civil to everyone, however, you do seem to get off on pushing peoples buttons, expectially Hemi Ram owners. You've tried to push mine before and I didn't bite. I remember what you offered and I appreciate that! I'm just doing what I was told to do and "moderate" the forums I'm suppose to.
Jim

i appologize for putting you in the moderator position,you have a job to do and i dont want to be your problem.Bastard was my own word and I didnt mean it as if you had said it. I will try and watch it.peace

It's cool!!! Don't think twice about it. :cheers:

Nice run man!!!

good times dline if you could bump up the shift rpms more it would help that 1/8 time is good. does it shift into third before the end of the 1/4?

I'll give the hemis respect you guys would have alot better times if you didnt have the pcm problems

yeah its in 3rd when I go throw the lights, with that superchips programmer it shifts at around +6000 rpm.

put it in 2 raise the rev limiter to 6600 and thats ur 14 sec pass

alright guys i am the one that gonzo was referring to in his original post. i know the hemis are fast, but when i was at the track i saw a couple of rcsb 2wd hemis on the scales in full trim weighing only 4600# with them in it. now i dont know how much weight they add for the 4wd but in the chevy they only add about 400-500#s. so that would put them right at my weight. and as far as the mods go, i started out with 50 less hp so why shouldnt i have a couple more mods to go with mine? but yes i do understand that i have a lot more done to mine than a lot of the hemis. but i have a smaller cubed engine too! so there are a lot of variables to look at. but when i get mine to where it wont go any faster without head work or any internal mods, then yall can find a hemi thats goin that fast too. excluding h777, there is just something wrong with those times on that truck, sorry. :eyes:

I wish a fully loaded hemi weighed 4600#!! Mine weighed in at 4850# on 17's, rear bumper and hitch removed, center console removed, and 1/8 tank of gas.

13.99 is strong N/A,what did you do with No2?

I haven't run it at the track yet with the nitrous. I have been to the track twice since the install, but I spent the entire first night fixing a friends truck, and I had a broken bottle heater and a nitrous leak the second time, so I never ran it. Now I have to find some slicks before I go back.

Yesh 4600lb's is light. My ship weight when the truck came off the train was 4750lbs. Fully loaded with my fat ass inside I tip the scales at 5300lbs. For racing I can get it back down to 4950lbs.

well i guess they were lying about being in full trim!? but i saw the scales when they were on them and they were both within 10#s of each other. so i dont know, but they also said all they had was dual exhaust (no headers)and a k&n drop in and they were runnin 14.6 constantly and a couple of 14.4 runs. so i think they did like to lie a little!

Yea, my last time at the track was 4760 lbs..... and I have had it down to 4720.... If I tried just a little harder I think I can get it down to 4690... but that would be really stretching it..... like carrying spare fuel to leave in the parking lot!

TJ

I think mine weighs in at around 4500 to 4550 with a 1/4 tank of fuel!!

The 2nd gen rams are much lighter than the 3rd gen's.

I think mine weighs in at around 4500 to 4550 with a 1/4 tank of fuel!!

Is that with you in it? Subtract 200 lbs from my weight listed above.... If not...

My truck is in my sig...it is an ec 4x4 tho with 3.42 gears. I was next to a hemi at a stoplight tho and I wasnt planning on racing him. but when the green turned on he squeelled the tires a little so I floored to after I was already rollin. When I put it to the floor I had to be at his back door(on a QC 4x4) I pulled up to mid fender on him by the time he let off at about 90mph. It was a pretty good run and I gave him the thumbs up afterwards, but I think his head was a little too big about it cuz he just kinda looked and nodded but w/e. I thought I ran pretty good against him and I dont know if he had anything done to it or not. that was without my 20's on too. Oh and I weighed my truck in full trim without me in it and the truck scales said 5100, I didnt wiegh it at the track.

TJ

Thats without me in it, I'm not exactly sure on the numbers cause it was about two tears ago when I weighed it!!!

Trolling? Dude I was here long before they made hemis

:jest:

Bastard! (I'm sorry)



BTW....What am I doing here?

If you want to compare a lightly modded chevy vs. dodge you can use my truck. The details are in the sig, but the mods are ram air/airbox mod and a catback exhaust. No tune, it's totally factory. With good air I went 14.887@90.21 with a weight of 4575 with me in it.

I wondering what mods that yellow rumble bee has with his 14.6.

Cool thanks for the info unklej. Based off your times it looks like your chevy responds better to mods then the hemi does. Dam the hemi computer. An equally equiped hemi would be slightly faster by a tenth or two, but that's all of a fender or so in the 1/4mile with 55 less hp and 400lbs lighter. A close race forsure.
