I’m back. Yes, that sounds very good. Brings back fond memories of my 383. I didn’t hear any tire noise. Perhaps the mufflers are too loud?

sounds killer.

Thank you

Exhaust shop did fantastic.

I will but i needed to get the exhaust done first so i can hook up the 02 and get the sniper tuned .

What type of pipe did they use? It looks amazing.

 

[Firemedic831]

It’s 2.5. I could not go 3 because of how it has to fit around the rear links . The collector is really cool I had not seen that before. Last time they had to just notch out 1 of the pipes But this time they did a very clean job for me . It sounds like a pack of pigs oinking lol

 

[Firemedic831]

I also had them put a joint and use v band clamps So if for any reason I do need to work on anything I do not have to pull the entire system out .

 

[Mike Shull]

I had to stay with 2.5 also. Is that aluminized pipe?

I am starting to think what to do next . I am thinking maybe AC and some sort or cool center counsel . Next winter i plan on Framing it . Purely for cosmetics .

 

[Firemedic831]

I figured since I had the interior tore apart I would clean up the floor . Very happy to be putting this pig back together again

 

[Firemedic831]

So many little things to do .

I was going to wire up my electric fans to the sniper . ( I had a fan wired before ) but the harness for the sniper 2 is different . . I had bought the sniper pdm. But never installed it . Anyways back when I got the sniper 2 they did not even have a harness at the time . So tonite I figured. Just get the new harness and install the pdm. . It will be a lot cleaner. I just hate redoing things . I think I am going to make a plate that mounts in the glove box. And I can Velcro all these controller boxes to it . With all the Dakota stuff and sniper stuff I want to keep it as clean as I can

 

[Firemedic831]

New harness showed up today so tonite I started installing it . I ran all the wires and hooked up
The pdm. And everything works . Fans come on fuel pump works. This is great . Now I can mount the pdm and shorten the wires and clean that up .

 

[Firemedic831]

The new harness does not have all those relays. Just a much cleaner setup .

 

[Firemedic831]

Cut out more wire. And got the pdm hooked up . Much cleaner now.

 

[Firemedic831]

Everything is working well . I ran it for about 20 min and the fan is kicking on and off like it is supposed to . I am really glad I decided to redo the wiring . Not exactly on my list of fun things to do but it is done . Got the sniper IAC dialed in also. I have a few more weeks to tinker with it before Cruise Moab Next is to get the skid plate mounted

Is the sniper sending data to the DD gauges. I’m thinking of using Holley Terminator (stealth w/ throttle body) so I can utilize the Terminator optional transmission control for a 4L60e.

Yes i have the additional control boxes for the Dakota digital gauge cluster so the Sniper ties into that as well

Getting closer . Ugg I decided to use some Pam to lube some tube I was bending. And I knocked the can over it fell and exploded mostly in my face but got on everything . What I flipping mess .
