Benchmarking dyno run - Where's my hp?
On my way home this morning from post office (damn inc taxes) and saw dyno place open. Finally got mine on - how dissappointing! I thought the Ram Airs had like 325-335 hp stock. Mine only topped out at 318. The only mod I have is Tranzam00s air intake, but I thought it would do better than that! Check it out:
My next mod was suspension upgrades, but maybe I need to do the exhaust first (lt,td etc)? Thoughts would be appreciated.

The factory rating is at the flywheel not the wheels. you actually made more power than the factory claimed. there is a 16-20% difference from flywheel to rear wheels. nice run!!

Thanks for the input guys. I really feel much better now. I did a search to find out what a stock '02 Ram Air should be. The two people who put that air intake on got 18 and 20 more hp than before, but they had exhaust upgrades. Any clues what stock #'s should have been?
