Lol were in the smae boat with our rams. Im leaving mine stock engine wise tho, the 8speed makes it feel great. Heck they run 14.0 out of the box anyways. Plus i still ahve my other 2 fast Sierras and my subaru to go Fast in.
Saw a 14 RT on Ramforum posted the other day. All bolt ons ran a 12.6...pretty hilarious for the minimal investment.
A lot of guys recommend the Diablo and tune From Hemifever

I'm actually going tomorrow to get wheatley to put a tune on it now that hp tuners supports the rams.
And my pypes 4.5" od black powdercoated tips just shipped today, so as soon as they arrive i'll be cutting the resonators off and throwing those on to complete the look.

I am renting a 14 hemi 1500 ext cab 4x4.
Its a decent truck and the 8 speed is def something to get used to. Its got some ***** for sure and the dial shifter is neat. I have had a couple issues where Cruise wont turn on unless I shut the truck off and re start it. Im averaging 17.5 mpg with mixed driving. I love the electronic locking tail gate with the key fob. That is so nice and a great feature. This one doesnt have a lot of options being a rental but still a nice truck.

I'm with you, i figured it to be faster as well. I think a combination of traction issues, heatsoak and the humidity. Lines were long, and the Hemi's deal with heatsoak pretty badly. I installed a 180 stat Sunday, need to go back to update the tune, its running much cooler with the stat. Olus i think it needs a driver mod, lol. Its been probably 10 years since i was at the track, plan on going back ina couple if weeks.

****, I never did post any additional pics did I? Nothing like almost 2 years later. LMAO, been a while since I've been on here.
I need to get some recent pics. Maybe this weekend. Though it hasn't changed much.
