Bruce,
I'd like to order a stage II (or III, please keep me posted if the "III"
version works out) made from a new core, with no exchange & the air
horns removed, for my 98 Durango. What "custom stuff" were you referring
to in your reply and at what cost? I am in no rush for this, but just
want to get on "the list" My address is...
Dave Gillock
23078 Courtland
Eastpointe, MI 48021
Thanx again,
Dave Gillock

First of all, I'm new to the DML and impressed with the performance tips
and overall helpfulness of the group. From what I've read so far, this
mod. is the most value for the $ (and a very low $ at that!).I have a
5.9L 98 Durango (3.92 LSD) with the following: K&N conical air filter
w/3" dia. intake tube, JBA S.S. ceramic shorty headers, Bosch Platinum
+4 plugs. Future improvements will include a catback exhaust w/upgraded
Y-pipe, MSD wires and possibly ignition syst. I'm also considering a
computer upgrade or replacement down the road. I have 4 main questions.
What is the difference between the Stage I and Stage II version? Will
either result in decreased MPG for daily use if the leadfoot factor is
not imposed? Can 87 octane be used for both? What do you charge for both
versions (with & without) a TB exchange? I would like to get one but
need some more details.
Thanx,
Dave Gillock
